Your comment is out of line. Nothing was "thrown away" in GTK4 unless you consider it "throwing away" that apps have to port to a new API to make use of a new API. Please read the full article, particularly this part:
>Given the Foundation doesn’t sell products or services, it can only happen with targeted, planned and transparent programmes, funded by donations. Because of the very open nature of the GNOME Project, the Foundation can’t decide for one direction of the GNOME Project for everyone
If you think working on the SDK is a good direction, then you should join the community and work on it, or donate to someone else who's already working on it.
- pjmlp 4y agoI did, almost 20 years ago to Gtkmm, doing advocacy, publishing some articles to The C/C++ User's Journal. It wasn't worth my time.
- throwaway82652 4y agoYes, with the benefit of hindsight you could say that most things are probably not worth anyone's time. If only we could see 20 years into the future to know which ones aren't, then that would save us all some time right now. Or you could take another outlook and just accept that the work involved in sustaining any community is ongoing and it never ends, no matter how hard you try.
