Your preferences are stored in your "Gimp profile". As far as I know the actual directory depends on the Gimp version (2.8, 2.10...), so if you run different versions you should be fine. But of course by default the various patch levels (2.10.24, 2.10.32...) all run with the same profile.
You can however make Gimp use a specific directory for the profile by setting the environment variable GIMP2_DIRECTORY before starting Gimp. In some OS/desktop environments it can be done directly in the shortcut/launcher definition, in others it requires to write a short script to set the environment variable before starting the executable.
