Yes but no. Relearning a program is one thing but the biggest problem with GIMP is: no non destructive editing. In the professional field GIMP is basically out of the question because of that
https://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-undo-dialog.html otherwise use layers. So, no, no problem at all.
It’s not about undoing. It means you can do things like edit something, change something else and then change the original change and then have the second change change accordingly to the change of the first change. This is something most professional or semiprofessional photoshop users I know need which GIMP doesn’t offer, that’s one of the main reasons people use photopea
So undo with layers. Just like gimp. The only thing gimp does not offer is the folks pretending to be professionals learned photoshop in school instead.
