Can you extrapolate on why you think Qt is a "God-awful cancer"? I've never used it as a developer, so I'm curious.

- AussieWog93 6y agoIt's one of those technologies that "almost works", like Bluetooth or ring binders. It's not quite broken enough to the point where people can justify breaking compatibility and working on an alternative, but it is a major pain point to anyone who uses it. Specifically, it introduces and entire class if new build/deploy issues, has a system that you need to actively fight against to get a UI that looks great, state synchronisation that feels like it was designed for UNIX terminals from 1985, and a whole host of corner case bugs and bizarre performance issues. I actually wish it were more broken so that we could all finally move on to something good.
