GIMP is falling behind.. Where is the UX?

Personally, I don’t find GIMP difficult to use, but whether you find GIMP’s UI easy to use is up to you.

darktable, which also has many features, has the ability to customize the UI and share that customized UI. Some people are trying to use it to create a simple UI for beginners.

If the development team has the capacity, I would appreciate it if they could implement a similar function in GIMP.
