Has it been relevant for something else before?

  Yes, back when G stood for Gimp, and not GNOME.

    Even in those days, Gtk+ applications were quite horrible on non-X11 platforms. GTK has never been a good cross-platform toolkit in contrast to e.g. Qt.

      I guess people enjoying GIMP and Inkscape would beg to differ.

        Maybe it’s a thing on Windows (I don’t know), but I’ve never seen anyone use GIMP or Inkscape on macOS. I’m pretty sure they exist somewhere, but all Mac users I know use Photoshop, Pixelmator or Affinity Photo rather than GIMP.

        Inskape devs have a lot of trouble making their app work on other OS.
