i don't understand why this is celebrated. it's a straight ripoff of photoshop.
sure, it's fast and everybody hates adobe but it's not cool to copy everything single feature they developed over so many years.
The entire history of software is apps copying from each other, improving on the previous generation (sometimes making things worse) and having the same done to them in the next generation. Don't see how you can single out Photopea for that.
Doesn’t this apply to OpenOffice (LibreOffice), Linux, and all the other open source alternatives to closed software?
I think it’s fantastic that one person can recreate Photoshop and offer it for free. If it’s good enough to pull people away from paying for Photoshop, perhaps Photoshop isn’t as valuable as Adobe thinks and they should innovate.
