Why are most comments referring to having used this in the past tense? I was under the impression that it was still the best image viewer in town, on Windows at least

IMO it's up there, I've been using it for over 20+ years.

IrfanView and foobar2000 (mp3 player) haven't left my side since I started using them. Ditto (clipboard manager) has also earned its place.

Of the three, ditto easily takes no. 1 spot. Must’ve saved me weeks of juggling windows and trying to remember where stuff was at this point. It’s a superpower, a true game changer if I ever saw one.

Maccy on macOS is about half as good which is still an absolute unit of a tool. Couldn’t use a Mac without it.

Yep, funny enough I have a Macbook for work (company laptop) and I also stumbled upon Maccy. You're right in that it's not Ditto but it's quite good and I'm overall happy using it.
