Actually pretty dope. I'll still probably go with Photoshop for anything beyond cropping a screenshot though since MS sat on their hands for too long on making MS Paint better, and now I've got habits.

Photoshop takes ages to open, though.

Why? Takes about 15 seconds on my computer if I have a bunch of other stuff running, which is always.

Paint takes less than 1 second on my system. 20 seconds is pretty crazy to do basic editing/blurring/cropping/etc.

Yup. The reason I still use paint, is that sometimes what I want to do is so simple that I'm done before Photoshop would have even loaded (which takes about 10 seconds on my pc).

Less than 20 seconds for me, same as lightroom

Ah, it depends on the person. For me, 20 is a good time. Because I don't do basic things with photoshop.

Can't see the advantage of faster start time if the capability of the program is crap.

Anything over 5 second is pretty damn slow.

... why? That sounds like extra work, does it do anything particular that Photoshop and MS Paint don't?

[–] BassaForte 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a free and browser based clone of Photoshop. I guess the biggest advantage is that it's free, but I'm not sure if it has many of the advanced Photoshop features. Great for doing simple things.

Browser based makes it a big disadvantage in my book.

[–] BassaForte 1 points 1 year ago

Ehh, agree to disagree. Again it's great for small and simple work, not huge projects. And it loads in an instant compared to Photoshop
