Here's a great example of a web app https://www.photopea.com/ that copies photoshop and is currently making 2 million dollars.

First, the rich/wealthy are not paying for a “Free Photo Editor” that’s an alternative for Photoshop. They are also not paying for Photoshop. That’s not how you get and/or stay rich/wealty. Instead they pay someone else to use Photoshop on their behalf.
Second, building a better mousetrap is not how you attract the rich/wealthy; in an extremely small minority of cases building an actually better mousetrap is how you become rich/wealthy, specifically by selling it to the not rich/wealthy. In most cases you become rich/wealthy by already being wealthy (see PoNeWo), these days mainly because your forebears are rich/wealthy or, rarely, talented (see PoNePo).
If you want to sell to the rich/wealthy, the key is to give them someone they can hunt without consequences; for your purposes, ideally, that’s someone else, but it really depends on how much money you want and how fast you think you can run.
I've never seen an issue covering photoshop alternatives.
