GIMP is not low effort. If you can 'quickly assemble' memes, it's because of previous effort. (I'm studying to be someone who can quickly assemble memes in GIMP)
That program has a unique UI philosophy. Does it resemble Photoshop? I've never used that.
Gimp 3.0 is finally actually something you could use to make something quickly
It still makes some baffling decisions (seriously I fucking hate that deselect is CTRL+SHIFT+D and not CTRL+D. I get why, shift is the "opposite" modifier, but GIMP is the only software I use that does this) and isn't perfect, but for meme making and general Internet use it's probably at long-last ready
