GIMP's UX is not objectively terrible. I use both Photoshop and GIMP and between the 2, GIMP is much easier to use for simple photo edits and manipulations.
Sure, Photoshop has chops, it can do amazing stuff with ease, but I prefer GIMP's layout, it makes far more sense to me and it is quick and easy. Maybe if I had started with Photoshop I would agree with you but it does work well once you get it, and it doesn't take long to get it, and that combo is what makes for "objectively good" UX.
