I was pleasantly surprised when I first saw such a good work done by a clone. Every feature you use is in the place you'd expect it to be in Photoshop. And it actually works "better" than photoshop for light-medium work because it doesn't take forever to load or eat 2 GB RAM at startup. And boy is it zippy!
I recently needed to do some image manipulation in Chrome OS, and the only thing which was easy enough to use without making an account which came to mind was Photopea.
In fact, just because it has copied the photoshop UX so well, I can say that it might be the best image editor on Linux too! GIMP has been a pain in the neck everytime I've tried to use it. And I've used Linux for like 7 years!
Well, 5/8 of the registered trademarks are dead. 3 of the trademarks are unrelated to 'computer programs for creating and manipulating graphic images on a computer.' or actual computer software in that domain.
You can actually still trademark it for this specific use case for photo editing purposes and software related to this.

Brilliant clone!

The name is 98% there. The author should have called it Photopia™.
It's such a good name, I'd run to the USPTO to file for a registered trademark for the author for that name to compete with Photoshop®.
US trademark database returns 8 records for Photopia, 0 for Photopea.
