I made a free alternative to Photoshop, that is used 10 million times a month. Ask me Anything! : IAmA
Hi, my name is Ivan Kutskir, I am 31 y.o. programmer from the Czech Republic. I made Photopea, an advanced photo editor which works in a web browser. During 2021, it was used 120 million times, people spent 20 million hours using it, and opened 500 million files in it.
I started to work on Photopea in 2012 as a hobby, until 2016, when I graduated and started to work on it full-time. I started monetizing it with ads in 2017, I never had any other job in my life :)
Lots of great people got in touch with me back then. Thank you, Reddit! :) I ended up hiring a guy from Prague, who studied at the same university as I did. But it will take time until he gets familiar with my code.
This is a good boss. There are code styles, and there are also different approaches to solving a problem. This takes time to recognise and get familiar with.
Yaml frustrates me that it wont accept tab as a blank space. Literally every markup language ever didn't care if you used space or tab for formatting.
