I'm looking at GTK here. Don't get me wrong, I like GTK and think it should be the preferred choice of GUI toolkit for many reasons. However, I have the same complaints a lot of people do about constant change and API compatibility issues. In some cases things need to change, but why going form 3 to 4 have menus been removed and require using other constructs? Could you at least provide a wrapper? Don't use event struct members directly, OK use accessor functions... But then you change the names and other details of the functions. It's not a "window" any more, it's a "surface" just because what? Beause Wayland calls them that? API stability is an important feature but these guys are talking about regular (say every 5 years) major version bumps that break things.
