Tried use GIMP a few times, but the standards feels way too different from Photoshop.
Like basically everything.
I’m not a designer, but I use such tools once in a while to make some images, and GIMP is nearly impossible to use for me.
Currently I’m sticking with Photopea on browser.
Gimp is weird. However, if it doesn’t click with you there’s other options (depending on what kind of workflow you’re trying to do). Personally, I prefer Krita, but inkscape is also an option.
EDIT: i was just scrolling through alternativeto about photoshop and found photogimp, looks like a fork of gimp intended specifically for photoshop users.
see the list yourself

Inkscape is even weirder if you’re coming from PS/GIMP/anything else that’s primarily a raster image editor. I do like Inkscape but it’s not immediately obvious how you even draw anything; I had to look it up.

I have found this guy’s tutorials really straight forward and helpful. He has a lot of tutorials but…
That video goes over all of the basic tools specifically if that is helpful.
I’m wondering now if I try to learn raw GIMP or use the plugins to make it feels like PS like a few people suggested me…
I also use Photopea for tasks I used to do in Photoshop. It’s not the best but coming from Photoshop it’s very easy to use.
