I nearly fully disagree with this article. Yes, there are still some inconsistencies with GTK3 and GTK4+Libadwaita, but that is expected, if you update your toolkit from one major version to another.
But for example blanket looks a lot better now, the button of the slider is far more visible.
kgx is, compared to the old GNOME-Console a lot nicer to use. Already the changing colours to violet for SSH and red for root-access are already a really nice feature.
Sure there are maybe some bugs and/or leftovers from the GTK3-GTK4 transition, but same as above, it will be fixed sometime.
> GNOME is still coupled to dubious libraries, with no way to avoid them unless heavily patching the code:
GDM depends on systemd || And now we also have libadwaita
systemd is standard for linux. And libadwaita is well, an extension to GTK, the Toolkit for GNOME => Absolutely appropriate.
Sure the dependency on WebKitGtk and Evolution is not that good, but at least Webkitgtk is installed on every GNOME-Desktop for other things.
But calling it "dubious" is not that appropriate, as they always have a sense. A dubious dependency would be - imo -, if GNOME depended on Wine or Qt

That's only the fault of Nvidia. If they would do the same as Intel and AMD, nobody would have problems with those drivers.

Maybe for the author, but a lot was done, the screenshot tool is soo nice to use, the applications often got better. (In my opinion at least)
