GIMP should do a Blender 2.8 and do a major focused release on improving UX

I suggested this a few years back but the community grilled me for it. I don’t think it’s the kind of ecosystem that wants to change.

There's a project called GIMPShop which was supposed to make the UI of GIMP more like Photoshop; I don't know what the current status of it is though.

Just be aware that the dot com domain for gimpshop was not created by the original author and contains malware in the download. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7481091

They should have an 'industry standard' keymap option on first start like Blender. But it's not nearly as weird as Blender was: there's no right click select, and eg. the cloning tool is basically the same thing as Photoshop's, though the large variety of select tools is a bit intimidating.

I thought that's what gimp 3 is supposed to be?
