All a bit of clutching-at-straws here.
Reinstalling Gimp vary rarely fixes a problem, although in this case upgrading to Gimp 2.10.6 is worthwhile.
More often it is a setting in the Gimp profile, which remains between versions. You could, as a general first thing to try, rename it (to disable) and start Gimp to make a new default clean Gimp profile.
But first a question. Is the text in existing documents and is the font used in those documents still available?
If a font is missing, try and edit a text layer and the default (usually sans) is used as a replacement.
Do the fonts display correctly in other applications?
It could be that the Gimp font cache is corrupt, try deleting it forcing Gimp to re-read the available fonts.
This is for slow loading but shows what to look for with Gimp 2.10 https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Window...workaround
