In what way ? Can you live with the bugs that show in your installation ? The Gimp developers do try and improve the Mac packages but Apple does not care about free / open source and that is where the instability lies. Report bugs https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issuess to the developers. You will not get an immediate fix but it helps with future releases.
I use linux and similar to Gimp, WINE (Wine Is No Emulator) is very much linux. Good for some utilities, I use it for a cataloging program. Just tried a Windows Gimp 2.10.30 Gimp opens, makes a user profile but hangs with the file selector dialogue. Tried an older Partha portable and the same thing. Not to say Gimp will not work in WINE but might take some setting up.
Why run Windows in your Mac ? It will cost you money. Just my opinion but a VirtualBox installation https://www.imore.com/how-set-and-use-vi...e-your-mac + a lightweight linux is only going to cost your time and you get a regular Gimp installation.
