Text effect
#2
Original looks more like a sunset image merged with a gradient, however

   

Not exactly the same but this using only Gimp tools  It does rely on a black background. Six screenshots, too many to display. Attached as two pdfs

Ref: 1-glitch.pdf
(1) Add some text in White over a gradient.
(2) Set the text layer to image size  Layer -> Layer to Image Size and (3) duplicate (as a spare - with visibility off) 
(4) Apply the Wind filter Filters -> Distorts > Wind Direction Left - Edge Both - Threshold maximum - Strength up-to-you
(5) Apply the Wind filter again, this time with Direction Right.

Ref 2-glitch.pdf
(6) Add a black background to the text. If you still have the BG colour set to black, it is Layer -> Transparency -> Remove Alpha Channel'  otherwise add a layer and merge down.
(7) Put the text layer into multiply mode.
(8) If you want it a little bolder, enable the spare text layer and set the mode to Soft Light.

Edit: This plugin might be worth experimenting with https://www.gimplearn.net/viewtopic.php/...f=3&t=1455
