Might as well port the next version of Gimp to Qt - they seem to be much more reasonable as API providers.

- sirwhinesalot 2y agoQt also introduces some messy changes between major versions but they tend to be a lot more reasonable than what GTK does. Since Qt4 at least there's usually some attempt at providing alternatives for each deprecated function or class (the alternatives are shown in the error messages) and sometimes full-on compatibility layers for missing features are provided like with Qt5Compat. Not sure Gimp devs would be willing to switch to C++ for Qt though.
