Agreed. As a longtime Photoshop user, I was gobsmacked the first time I used Photopea at just how good it was. Gobsmacked even more when I found out it was all written in JS and completely running in the browser with no server backend.

EDIT: apparently my enthusiasm is outdated. I just tried to load the site in Firefox [latest version] and got the following error:

"Your browser is too old (no WebAssembly). Please, update it."

What a shame!

You likely have a browser setting that needs to be changed. It runs fine for me in Firefox.

yeah I'm also on firefox and its working for me. this shouldn't be a problem mozilla supports webassembly

Yuu're both right. For some reason I had:

about:config > javascript.options.wasm > FALSE

Could be that's the default. I certainly don't remember disabling WebAssembly at any time.

Photopea working fine in FF now.

Hmm, are you on an old version of FF? I just tried it in 106.0.1 on Ubuntu and it worked fine (even with uBlock and some other adblockers).

Perhaps you should update.

Ahem....

  >I just tried to load the site in Firefox [latest version]

Fixed now, anyway. See above ^^
