So commercial-grade batch processing of images on other people’s infrastructure and dodging any form of compensation is 100% worth complaining about? OK.
You can’t just save the webpage as HTML and run it (which is what woelkchen doesn’t seem to grasp, even though I tried to explain it to him in another thread). But technically, all of the image processing code for cropping, saving, painting on the image etc. runs locally.
You can see that easily for yourself, just disconnect your internet after opening the site and it continues to work just fine.
That’s why all of the accusations that I’m freeloading and straining the developers’ server from batch-processing images are unfunded.
I fully grasp it, I was just pointing out how insane your claim is that you don’t use their server resources by making an equally insane counter point.

You claimed that I was uploading and batch-processing images on the developers’ infrastructure. I tried to tell you it’s not true, because all of those features still work without internet. Load photopea.com, disconnect your internet - tadaa, you can still “upload” images, crop them, save them, draw on them…
I must be a magician if I can connect to the developers’ machine without any connection at all. There is only one person in this thread who cannot understand how basic technology works. And it’s not me.
My point is: Why would I pay a subscription for that “service”? A service that barely uses any resources, except the ~1MB Javascript file and a few image assets that are delivered via the web? A web server hosting a few megabytes of data does not warrant 8€ per month per user. If people believe I am an entitled bitch for thinking that way, they can do so. But it will not change my opinion.
Wow this thread. Clearly both of you have the understanding of the mechanics and are both intentionally mischaracterizing what the other is saying. You both need to go touch some grass.

Doesn’t photopea run locally?

Yes, exactly this insane claim.

“Um, achtually I crop images only locally and loading up Photopea in the first place doesn’t count towards freeloading other people’s work.🤓”
