I can't say that's been my experience!
- jcelerier 5y agoI've just checked my desktop and (besides a ton of terminals), I have : - Zim (GTK widgets note taking app): https://zim-wiki.org/ https://zim-wiki.org/ - Strawberry (Qt widgets music player): https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/ https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/ - QtCreator (Qt widgets IDE) - KTimeTracker (Qt widgets time tracker) - Telegram (Qt widgets, even if it does not look like it ;p) - Firefox (its own thing, hardware-accelerated) - VSCode (electron, hardware-accelerated) My document-writing software is TeXStudio, also in Qt widgets. The main software I work on, https://ossia.io https://ossia.io is too (the canvas can be rendered with Qt's GL painter but this leads to better performance only on 4K+ resolutions, on 2K Qt's software renderer is faster and has less latency in all the systems I could try, and has a way lower "idle" energy consumption as it does not particularly wake the GPU). Other than that, software that I use occasionnally are all widgets-based and don't do GPU rendering (AFAIK): LMMS, QLC+... Anecdotally, I tried every GPU accelerated terminal I could find and none felt as good as my trusty old urxvt
