A few years ago I tried putting text on a path (think "curvy text"). First tried gimp, quit frustrated after about a hour. While at some point I "kind of" got it to work, it looked like shit. Then I opened photoshop, was done in about three minutes. Note that I never did it before in photoshop nor gimp.

Luckily, nowadays I just open photopea whenever I would have used photoshop in the past. The fact that one single guy built a better photo editor than gimp should tell you everything.
