I thought you might be using linux from your profile (hence linux flatpak gimp reference). That is a linux binary and of course does not work in Windows (or OSX).
The site is here https://code.google.com/p/gimp-mbb with a link to the now defunct gimp-plugin-registry site, so a Windows binary attached. I have tried it in a Win10 / Gimp 2.10.8 (VM) and it does work.
Going back to to the original post, using Gimp only tools. You might get a result with a selection and a mask
The selection a bit wider than envisaged and a good feather applied.
A black layer mask
A white-to-black gradient and the gradient in Shaped Spherical mode. https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-tool-gradient.html That applies the gradient following the edges of the selection.
In Gimp 2.10 you can adjust the gradient on the canvas.
Usually more work required after that, touch-up / blur / mess-about-with layer mask.....
