Just to contrast the negativity here I'd like to say that GIMP is great software, and I really appreciate all the hard work that has been put into it over the years. It's powerful, easily scriptable, and I'm eternally grateful for everyone's contributions to the project.

Have you actually been using it?
I use it regularly, but my use case doesn't really extend beyond compositing images. Works great for me though, my only complaint is the startup time.
If the startup time is your complaint, you are probably still on 2.8, that is, before fonts started lazy-loading.
it is a great tool I've been using for over 3 years

and soo many UI features are a pain - the main one for me is using text / fonts, it feels like it's designed to fight you
