Is Campaign Cartographer still the go-to tool for RPG maps?

I was about to download Campaign Cartographer 3 — my latest Patreon RPG project is approaching the point where I need a good map of the world — but then I stopped.  I’ve never actually used it, so I don’t know anything about how easy it is, how complicated it is to port maps into images, whether the world maps can be semi-automated to come up with believable geological features, etc, etc, etc.  Anybody out there ever use it, or have an alternative to it that does good work for perhaps less than fifty bucks? Because there’s that, too.

    Sorry, it’s been about a decade since I last made maps on the computer. But even then, there were several free GIS programs that weren’t horribly difficult to use. I can only imagine it’s gotten better. (Especially after checking out some of the Linux programs I downloaded when trying to give new life to an old laptop. I was expecting bare bones but functional, not “OMG. This is so much better than [expensive bloatware].” Repeated many times.
