The deprecation and removal of keyboard inputs literally results in a bug that generates an error message, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5872 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5872
This is a microcosm for the Gtk3/4 pivot to mouse only as a whole: they don't care about the bugs caused for people who use keyboards. And DE's like XFCE/MATE/etc are unable to fix these bugs because they're Gtk bugs.
- qwery 3y agoI don't see how that issue demonstrates what you are claiming. The error message is confusing, yes. Calling it a clear-cut bug is a stretch. The way you are referring to "bugs" is still misleading. > This is a microcosm for the Gtk3/4 as a whole. Is it? Where is the war on keyboards? Where is the resistance to working patches? Where is the ignored justification for your preferred behaviour?

On #gtk straight out of the typing fingers of the devs. In the form of the non-merged fixes in Arch for Gtk3. And in the bug tracker but you can't see all the closed and deleted bugs. As for "preferred" there's no preferences allowed by modern Gtk anymore. The gsettings for setting preferences were removed which lead to the bug.
