The Bible Browser feature does not appear to include the LSB yet. I’m using that feature with the NASB 95 (which is “close”) - are there plans to add the LSB?
If you have the NASB 20 it's almost identical to the LSB. I'd like to see the LSB as well, but that's a decent substitute until they do. The LSB is based on the NASB 20.
Thanks, my understanding is that the LSB is actually more a revision of the 1995 edition (rather than the 2020 which was not very well received by fans of the 95 edition) - and so the translators worked off the 1995 edition. As a point of reference, in the Legacy Standard Bible fact page it states that is a restatement of the NASB listing all editions through 1995 (with no reference to the 2020). In any event, I guess I'll "stay tuned" for this feature to be added by Logos, although I"m not sure why it hasn't been added as it is interlinear and the other guides appear to work with it.

Yes, and if I felt a need to switch from the 95 edition, it would be to the LSB. I also like using the WEB edition with its lack of copyright restrictions, but it lacks a reverse interlinear.
The LSB is based off of the NASB 95. This screenshot is from the LSB website.

Yep. As is the NASB 2020.
My understanding is that the NASB 2020 was an attempt to become more like the ESV, which had been steadily cutting into the sales of the 1995 NASB. In the process of "modernizing" it also became more gender neutral.
A lot of people did not like the changes, and thus the LSB project was born.
The LSB made some big changes which might be considered controversial to some english readers. One was translation of the Tetragrammaton as Yahweh rather than LORD in all caps. (didn't the HCSB sorta try that and then backtracked in the CSB?)
The other was the translation of doulos as "slave" rather than the traditional "servant". (didn't the HCSB sorta try that and then backtracked in the CSB?)
A lot of people I know really like the LSB.
I just received my LSB today, it replaces my NASB 95, I still prefer printed books, even though I quite like Logos (most of the time…lol). I read Matthew today, I felt as though I was reading the same Bible word for word. Of what I checked, the passages were identical, also, on the back of the box it says "An update to the NASB '95".
