From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You see, I answered your question. Now, where is the answer you promised? Let me guess, you don't have any?
GIMP's interface can definitely be less intuitive for some users.
GIMP does not always seamlessly integrate into professional workflows.
Photoshop offers a more extensive set of advanced features and tools, such as advanced text handling, 3D capabilities, etc, which are not as robust in GIMP.
GIMP's CMYK support is not robust at all.
GIMP's non-destructive editing features are poor in comparison to photoshop.
GIMP's native format (XCF) is not as universally compatible as PSD
GIMP has significantly fewer learning resources. This is more about the community and less about the software.
These are just a few examples.
