God i hate GIMP’s UI. Luckily Photopea exists now and has I think every Photoshop feature. Noteably the incredibly necessary (for me) pen tool is there.
Krita is good to know about though for when I need to do charachter sketches for my artist partner to turn legot.
I got used to GIMP in school since me and my friend would fuck around with it so much and we didn’t know about pirating photoshop or whatever. I feel like I have so much control but I’m sure every editing software feels like that when you grasp the basics. The only things I struggle with is how many options you think would be in blur or animation or whatever are hidden deep within menu trees you wouldn’t think to look
My main thing is that i cannot undersell how necessary the pen tool is for what i use photo editing for. I knowpaint.net doesnt have it. And if GIMP does i cant find it. So im using photopea or photoshop.
Color replacement us a little easier in paint.net so i use it for that. GIMP is just so unituitive and my brain is smooth as a pearl.

Latest beta of GIMP has incredible UI.
Stable release probably around Q2 2024.
Yoooooooooooooooooo this is so good thank you for mentioning it.
I spent like a hour trying to do some pretty simple stuff with GIMP the last time I gave it a go and it really put me off learning it.
It lacks a useful raw editor
