This should be helpful for people that learned Photoshop in the past (for work or in school). From what I understand, a lot of the friction with GIMP is the workflow differences, and potentially unintuitive UI/UX choices.
tldr: recovering Adobe Photoshop user shows you features in the very free and very open source gnu image manipulation program :D

Are there any other YouTubers like bread that have straight forward Linux videos?
there used to be more, but now news is the main thing.
in olden times (of 2021), distro reviews/why linux is better/software showcase were the main things.
there were folks like luke smith (not going to his political shit) would do demos for things like groff/troff (imagine a latex alternative, now it is pretty much only used for man pages). but you get the idea - they would demo software, use it, compare it.
there is tle, who did lots of lists (like x amount of tools from elementary os which are great), linux cast would do file manager reviews, brodie would cover commandline stuff.
now pretty much all 3 of them do news. I still watch brodie because his news at times is niche and kinda fun, but i really do not want to hear lkml drama (which is non existent).
one of the youtubers which got me into linux was mental outlaw. he made tonnes of privacy/security/anonymity related videos back then, and occasional covered hacking news. i started trying to make windows more private (it truly started from try to make wwindows leaner), and then he, and tle got me into linux.
now i do not watch almost any of them. (except brodie, and occasional tle and tlc)
why all went to news - it is easier to make.
Don’t forget Andrea Borman
The one news dude I liked listening to got in a car accident and is slowly getting back into posting
