yes, and I've used it a good bit the past 6 months. I've almost paid for the premium version several times - but it's subscription to rent online without ads, not pay and own.
I prefer pay and own offline, (no faith in anything cloud being accessible forever).
The learning curve has been steeper with affinity designer and photo - but I feel more secure knowing it will work day after day, no subscription, no internet required.
Much to like about photopea - couldn't stand that video ads would keep running even if I had left that tab/window and been in other tabs for hours - and they have an adblocker-blocker that says you can't use without ads (or paying for premium, which I totally would if it could work offline)
I do think it's good to know how to use, and there are good tutorials for pea and affinity (And corel) on youtube.. so it's a nice tool to know and use in a pinch, best if you save and close the window - which is not my normal method of operation.
I totally understand. There are limitations with the browser-based tool like it being laggy depending on the size of the file and the ads are annoying but it gets the job done in most cases without making a big spend buying photoshop.
