I've heard good things about Photopea.
ETA: No idea about privacy, etc.
Edit2: I've been informed it's not free software. Leaving it here for anyone that might find it useful, though.
non-free bad. ๐
As in freedom, of course
Yes:
Yeah, I was afraid of that. Wasn't too sure because I haven't checked it out myself. Just know I've seen it mentioned a few times.
At least it allows people who depend on Photoshop (and don't want to spend time learning GIMP) to try transitioning to platforms unsupported by Adobe (which are the best platforms, mind you ;) )
Yeah, that's why I decided to leave the comment there. Not everyone has a rigid stance on free software and privacy. If this software allows someone to finally ditch Windows or MacOS, then it's already more secure and private than before.
