But this time sandboxed and you have some mod capabilities if you know how to use greasemonkey scripts.

And all the text in the app is selectable and copypastable.

Agreed but I guess at the same time those who spend money to develop software need to find ways to monetise I just wish they were not so predatory. Everything is a subscription now siphoning money out of users on a monthly basis.
Except the part of them actually being native to the OS they are running on.
A recommendation I make where I can: OpenShot. FOSS, cross-platform, no accounts and very capable and easy to use.
Thanks, added to my list.
