Sure, you can use it to edit photos. That's just not it's strength.
It's not, right, because of this I said that Gimp and Krita are good to use as complementary tools for normal users. Krita is even capable to edit .raw formats, used in Photography, In Gimp you need an Plug-in to edit .nef or .raw formats, but with not so good results, also not in Krita, that is why Photografs still prefer to use Photoshop.
Almost all I work with, have switched to Affinity. Both because of the price tag, but also because they are so tired of Adobe... A great tool is not worth much, when it's rented from a big and greedy control freak... It's insane how much they want to install on your computer...
