I’m not trying to make a painting with a drawing tablet, though. I just want to edit the alpha values of an image. From what I can tell, nothing offers that type of basic image editing. Paint.net comes close, but even that can be finicky and relies on community addons that often become unavailable.
GIMP is awful though. I havent seen the new ui yet, but the old one was unusably bad
try krita, specially for digital painting with tablet

In gimp just right click the layer, choose add layer mask, then pick from layer’s alpha channel. You now have a mask layer you can paint on.
Make a circle.
Good fucking luck.
Circular select, fill?
Have you considered that photoshop is also awful, and pretty much visually 1:1 to gimp at a glance
Um. Maybe if youre drunk and/or high.
