I tried Krita. It's not not as good as GIMP is. What I will say is, it is pretty good for what it is and offers stuff that GIMP does not have. In fact I wanted to switch multiple times because of the support for Vector layers and non destructive workflows. But I never liked editing or creating images with it. Their text tool is also terrible (or was, I don't know the current state). Just not a good GIMP replacement for me.

Krita is excellent, but it's for a different task. Krita is for image creation. GIMP is for image manipulation.

Krita has been working on the text tool in recent years, so it might be better than you remember it.
