titleIs the web-based Chrome BrightAuthor:connected application exactly the same as the desktop application?

Both the Chrome application and desktop application function using BSN.cloud identically. The main difference between the Chrome and desktop BrightAuthor:connected applications is that the Mac or PC desktop application can function locally. Using BrightAuthor:connected locally allows files and content stored on the computer's hard drive to be accessed directly through the application, while when using the BSN.cloud files and content are required to be first uploaded to the BSN.cloud before being available for use in presentation and other player content.

titleCan I use Dynamic Playlists without BSN.cloud?

No. A BSN.cloud Content Cloud account is required to host Dynamic Playlists. However, you can get similar functionality with a self-hosted Media RSS (MRSS) feed, which can work with any player that has an internet connection. See this FAQ for more details.
