I’m very used to using it now, but I remember being very confused and frustrated to start with. Gimp is all about layers and selections which was rather new to men when I got into it, so rather than using a circle drawing tool you instead select a circle and then fill it and stuff like that
Photoshop is also about image manipulation but it was like the number one for digital art to many artist before that place was took by Clip Studio. Also before a lot of the even more shady practices from these days
The UI/UX is very similar, they just added some non destructive image modifiers (similar to Blender), better text editing, and a bunch of under the hood stuff that should help in the future.
So its now easy to use? I’m familiar with Krita and I still struggle to get into Gimp

Krita is primarily for painting/creating art and GIMP is about image manipulation, right? I’m not sure if they’re aiming for the same thing.
