Photo apps on Big Sur

ON1 Photo Raw 2020, Capture One Pro 20, Fast Raw Viewer and Luminar 4 - All seem to work fine on Big Sur. I'm running it on my 2018 Mini i7 w/ 32GB and 1TB SSD. I have not as yet tried using the eGPU in those apps. That may or may not present issues.
More importantly all good for your mini (as I have a similar vintage).
I got impatient and made the upgrade too. No issues to report here either. In fact, everything seems a little snappier than before. Maybe that's because Catalina was not considered to be all that great of a release, and the 10.15.7 update really seemed to increase the background overhead.
Luminar 4, while it will 'work' under Big Sur, will not export an edited image. It's a known issue according to Skylum and they will have a fix posted very soon. So they say....
That is exactly the problem I've had with Luminar 3 as well. I figured it was a bug and I hope the fix will apply not just to Luminar 4 but also to the older Luminar 3. I use Luminar 3 for finishing touches sometimes, and I like their "erase" tool better than the one on DXO PhotoLab 4, which is my primary editing program. So for the time being, I'll just do without using Luminar 3 until I hear that the exporting of edited images issue has been fixed, and I'll check it out then.
Luminar 4 has now been update to enable Big Sur exports. Just did mine this morning.
I have found a work-around for other Skylum apps that still reside on my Mac, even though they haven't been used for a while - Luminar 4 replaces most of them. The apps I've tested are: Aurora HDR 2018, Intensify*, Noiseless CK*, Tonality*. (* These apps are no longer available on the App Store in the UK. If they were purchased from the Skylum web store they may be available for download there.)
The work-around is use "Open in Photos" from the File menu in each app. They export successfully to the Photos app and from there they can be exported as normal.

I've had Graphic Converter off and on since the early 2000's. I don't use it as much, but it's still a useful tool to have.
With Big Sur, I have their latest version 11.x, it will not load or run past the menu screen. I've uninstalled it, but no luck.
The latest release notes say that it's compatible. I'll wait and see if an update comes out.

Adobe CC is just to expensive, at least for me, and I already paid dearly for CS6 and CS6. It is a matter of time before I have fully switched to Affinity Photo and the NIK plugins. A lot of photographers are doing the same, although I am not a professional. Photography is one of my hobbies.

Should have replied to you about GC some time ago. Anyway Graphic Converter is already on version 11.x. I had been using version 8, and upgraded to version 11 because the upgrade only costs $25.00. But the upgrade to 11 covers from version 6 and up. However, you have to enter the older key code (or is it code key?), and then the one emailed to you after the upgrade purchase.
I misplaced the old key code, so I emailed Lemke Software about it, and they emailed me a code I could use to register the upgrade. I have always had excellent responses from Lemke Software.
