Just had a look at the GIMP 3.0 milestones page and saw this.
Am I missing anything or is GIMP 3.0 actually going to be released soon?!

I appreciate your insights in the matter, and with 3.0 here I may have to give GIMP another try!
I heard 3.0 came out today but I haven’t quite gotten around to trying it out. (I just got home recently, so…) I think I’ll go do that now! :)
Edit:
Sigh… Yeah it definitely still needs improvements.
I copy/paste an image onto a blank window, then press
Shift-Ctrl-X
to crop to selection; it doesn’t work.So I look it up and find that the Crop to Selection option is located under the Image tab. Okay, so I click Image and go to click Crop to Selection. It’s greyed out.
I go to find out why, and according to the Documentation, it is greyed out if “there is no selection for the image”.
Why it doesn’t automatically treat copy/pasted layers as selections is beyond me. Most other paint software (even MS Paint!) does this. It’s basic design nowadays.
Just why? Why does GIMP have to hurt me like this? T_T
Edit 2:
And it needs to have Lanczos interpolation available for resizing. At present, it only has Linear, Cubic, NoHalo, and LoHalo, whatever the hell those last two are as I’ve never heard of them before.
