I'm already way passed my time of using image editing software, but i've also heard people say the same for 2.0, but in my experience i still have to tolerate a lot of UX shit. And crash. But cool nonetheless, i'll check it out. Professional still should just get Affinity rather than struggle with a release candidate.
2.0 was released 20 years ago in 2004… a lot of things, including software, can change in 20 years. 3.0 finally has adjustment layers, et al. that they have been working on since I first started following in 2008 but had blockers on GEGL & all sorts of massive refactors… which are now finally coming. If there was a time to try to get a new opinion on GIMP, it will be now (or very soon when 3.0 is finally officially released).
I heard of Gimp 2 and tried it around 2013/14, the version of that time is what my opinion is based on. Granted it's been 10 years or so i first tried it and i need it as i have no access to adobe software anymore. Right now i've no used of image editing software, but i guess it's my only option if i need it.
