Bikes: Had an old Columbia in the 80's, here a used Schwinn hybrid, now a Cannondale Quick 3 and a Topstone 105..

Strava vs Garmin.

I have been using the free version of Strava for over a year now but have been thinking of getting a Garmin dedicated bike computer. I don't go outside the surrounding areas and have no interest to set up a ride to follow on the screen. I like the segments option that Strava has and was wondering would I be better served using the subscription Strava over the Garmin or the Free Strava? I am confused. I don't have a power meter, not that I would not want one, but my rides are usually in the 12-15 mile range 4-5 times a week. For the cost of the computer and the type of riding I do is there any reason/benefit to a Garmin or subscription Strava for me or is it just money spent on another toy?
Thanks in advance, Frank.
