I'm tired of Gimp crashing my SO every time I try to put a text on an image. So, I'm wondering, which other alternatives there are, aside of Gimp, for Linux?

Krita. gPaint. Kolourpaint. Now you know why the GIMP is so popular - the alternatives are stuck in 1990.

Pinta - the clone of Paint.NET, made with mono.

... and MyPaint, but like fromhell I was convinced by none of them.

I heard about but haven't tried Pinta. Paint.NET was charming.

Now, I never experience any crash with Gimp, considering you had some with netradiant too, I'd be more concerned with the stability of your system than about these softwares. A wrong library and it's enough to make your apps crashing.
My video/multimedia apps were once messed up when wrongly using debian-multimedia repositories, some weren't properly deleted and updated, causing a few programs to crash. So I imagine the same can happen on Ubuntu.
