I agree. There's absolutely no reason to have photoshop in the browser. If you want to sync your files with 'the cloud' you don't need a browser for that.

well id personally love to use my desktop as i left it off with a click of a button on any pc/tablet that has a browser.

Its not a big pain but it would make my life easier!

The browser is now an operating system (as Chromium proves). Photoshop is welcome to run on any operating system.

Photoshop on a Chrome Pixel, for instance, makes a lot of sense.

the Pixel makes little sense to start with unless you enjoy vendor locking.

I don't understand your statement at all.

The only thing I'm locked into is Chromium, and even that I can replace.

The only thing happens to be every thing, and once you replace it the whole point becomes moot.

So, imagine the list of operating systems that you believe it makes sense to run Photoshop on.

I'd like to add Chromium to your list.

And your answer is... that... "vendor lock-in"?

I'm sorry, but you're making zero sense.
