As someone who has used Gimp on/off since the pre 1.0 days ie. when it was a Motif (Lesstif?) app, it certainly has come a long way.
One of the things that held it back (for me) for a long time was the lack of 16/32-bit colour processing, which it didn't get until the 2.9 (development builds) in 2015:

And of course this didn't make it into stable builds until around a year ago. I am very pleased with 2.10 overall, and these days I only start up Photoshop if there is something I can't do in Gimp 2.10.
