You can easily add an outline around text in gimp once you learn the process.

Give me a minutes, I'll type it out.

I know it's doable, but it's just one of those things which is much easier in other editors, and it's a pretty common feature for quick edits like making memes

Sorry, work got in the way.

To do this, select the text layer.

Right click, click Alpha to selection.

Voila, you have a text shaped selection mask.
