When did it suck?
I've been using it professionally for the last 3 years or so and it's no worse for UX than Photoshop, the 'industry standard'.
Both GIMP and photoshop are very sophisticated and technical software (although Photoshop is becoming less so I should add).
People who want a leaner set of tools should have a look at something like Tux Paint.
Maybe its better. I have used it off and on for like, 20 years or more now. It was crap for a looong time.
