No, it's mostly because Qt5 apps also start to use QML widgets, which are quite a bit inferior in just about everything. Higher latency, a "touch like" feel (fatter borders in general, overall lower display density), respond in a different way (scrolling), and so on.
I always was a great fan of both GTK2 (for the UI) and Qt4 (for the API). GTK3 made me switch to Qt4 for development. Qt5 brings some improvement, but as a user I absolutely hate QML.
- laumars 8y agoI suspect your comment is tangical to the what myself and the GP were discussing as I don't really understand why qt5 using QML would affect the look and feel of existing legacy qt4 applications. Running qtconfig-qt4 and redefining the config I wanted did fix the "ugliness" of qt4 applications after I upgraded to KDE5 (or whenever it was KDE switched qt versions)
