Who cares about top-of-the-line updates. Adobe Photoshop features from 10 years ago is all I need for my use case, and probably anyone who's not using it every day. That's why they force subscriptions now.
In my experience browser based apps are sooooo slow compared to native ones.
Also no offline support at all.
And they have access to all of my data because I have to upload it.
I just want to use lightroom to edit my vacation photos, I don't want to upload all of my photos over my slow internet connection just to edit them in a high-latency browser app. Also I'm likely traveling in a vehicle without stable internet.
