Gimp 2.10 is really rather pleasant to use. Some pains remain, but it's (very slowly) getting there.

Gimp as a whole becomes ten times better once you enable single window mode.

Gimp having multiple windows is its best feature. Luckily, Photoshop on macOS (but not Windows) also has multiple windows mode (though it's emulated, they aren't really operating system windows, so not as nice as Gimp).
