> load several photos that I shot in a burst and then let me cleanly flip back and forth between them to pick the best one Yes, Photoshop does have that, though you do it through Bridge or Lightroom instead of in the same app. (Bridge is a companion app to Photoshop in all its versions, and Lightroom is bundled with it in most Creative Cloud plans.) Lightroom is famous for not being super-fast in image import, so you might not find it fit for purpose. It has a bunch of compensating value that makes putting up with this worthwhile for many of us. I’ve tried a few of the alternatives that claim to be Lightroom killers, and they weren’t even close on several key measures. The latest one I tried couldn’t do hierarchical keyword management and would reliably crash every hour or so, for example. > they should adopt standard browser zoom shortcuts Ah, irony; browsers got those shortcuts from Photoshop! Early browsers didn’t have those features at all. It was probably the Mac browsers that made this a standard, since Mac apps more reliably support those shortcuts, since Photoshop and MacOS have such a long and close shared history. (Okay, the shifted variants aren’t in Photoshop, but the other three are.)
