Didn't they received a lot of funding? What features did they implement that are not present in GIMP?

You can see what they've done and what they're working on here: https://github.com/glimpse-editor/Glimpse/projects/1
I've read all the release notes and I couldn't find anything that wasn't upstream sync or redistribution, packaging, irrelevant stuff.

I just want to understand what they delivered since June, 2019. Could you name a couple of examples?

Yeah, they seem to be off to a fairly slow start. This isn't the first Gimp fork to try to work on UX - but biting off a huge old codebase isn't easy and previous efforts have all been overwhelmed or overtaken by upstream and fizzled out, afaik.
