> That is Gnome. Gnome has become a top-down project that values consistency/coherency over modularity/theming They care about that so much that they break Gtk+ every few version, to the point that in 2022 there are still Gtk+ 2 apps around, and there will be Gtk+ 3 apps following old design paradigms for years to come. So much for consistency. It's 2022 and I don't see Qt 4 around anymore, or apps using it still being widely in use. Guess why? Because Qt developers actually give a damn about people using their library, and they give a damn about people using the _latest_ version of it. What GNOME is doing today is telling everyone to go fuck themselves, and pushing people towards writing their next app in Qt, which by the way integrates nicely with GNOME and does not look like garbage everywhere else. Now with PySide being finally a first class citizen and working well with QML there's not even the "but C++ is ugly" card to play against going Qt.
