Ok. You use ubuntu 18.04 and Gimp 2.10.14 from https://launchpad.net/~otto-kesselgulasc...buntu/gimp and I use the same.
Some parts do not work for you but work for me. Conclusion, something broken in your installation.
I am assuming you installed Gimp from a terminal as shown in https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Gimp-2...-18-04-LTS
You can check the python console, it should look like the inset in the attached screenshot. Version numbers should coincide. Other than that do not bother with the terminal. There is a search function in Gimp 2.10, press the / (forward slash) to bring up the search box, enter a search term to see what is available. You can use this to reach a function if you click on the entry. screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/UDYBS2M.jpg
Seems your interests lean towards animation, sometime you will need a working python installation. Ofnuts for example has useful plugins for merging / adding to animations.
You could try re-installing Gimp according to the above, might / might not work. (If I was doing it, I would purge the existing first)
An alternative Gimp 2.10.14 There is a portable Gimp, an appimage here: https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases/
You want the 2.10.14-with-plugins https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-app...4.AppImage (140 MB) Put anywhere you like, make it executable, run it. Slightly different from the regular Gimp 2.10, makes a Gimp profile ~/.config/2.10-Appimage. Otherwise works the same for the user.
Sorry I can not help more, best of luck
