@milofultz @neauoire I believe it's like this because people who use image editors have some habits acquired from software they previously used.
I don't edit images that often so I don't have such habits and at least GIMP's menu structure seems intuitive to me. I agree though, the shortcuts are a mess. I also have old Photoshop CS2 and sometimes it takes a couple of seconds for me to find what I want in the menu.
