The GIMP has been timelessly heralded. I personally just put up with closed-source IrfanView and Paint.NET, personally.
If you’re into Paint.NET, check out Pinta; it’s basically Paint.NET (inspired by it) but open source and works on all 3 major OS’s.
Wow, thanks, I’d never heard of this before! I’ll pick it up.
Looking for a photo editor more than a painting tool
Good news, the GNU Image Manipulation Program is designed for manipulating photos
I don’t think anyone uses Gimp for painting or drawing. It has the filters and extensions and tools which make it useful for cleaning up or editing photographic imagery.
If I’m looking to paint or draw, I fire up Krita, not Gimp.
There’s Darktable for handling photos, as well, but that’s an alternative for Lightroom, not Photoshop.
GIMP and darktable work well for photo editing.
