if writing apt update && apt upgrade is too time consuming and really waste your time that much (do you spend all your time installing and removing software?) then I suggest you spend a few seconds on writing an alias for your most used commands.... alias x='apt update' , alias y='apt upgrade' , alias z='apt install' etc...
Well GIMP, Emacs and Chromium are only three packages. For GIMP Debian testing is usually following the latest release quite well - or Emacs and Chromium I have no idea since I don't use it.
I would hardly call Debian one of the worst distros out there, it is one of the (if not the) biggest distro and it is also the mother distro for tons of others "twistros" which essentially are Debian with minor modifications. I find that Debian tries very hard to separate non-free and contributed software and while not everything may be perfect in that respect they are at least trying. For every stable release I need the non-free and contrib repos less and less which really is a good thing!
PS! Merry Christmas and enjoy your favorite distro
