@getimiskon >I hope qt6 will be too
a bunch of applications have already upgraded and I can't even tell which ones, they're pretty much the same (some can even run on both)
gtk2 had pretty good UX, the problem is that by now almost everything has upgraded to gtk3 so it just feels out of place (and has no wayland support, which means no scaling among other things)
I agree though that gtk3 is fairly okay, despite a few annoyances that aren't strictly unfixable
I didn't mention EFL because I forgot it even existed lol, does anything use it outside of enlightenment and tizen?
there's also a bunch of newer toolkits that see little use (at least for now) like slint
I have mixed feelings about those, because they're good under the hood but create more UX inconsistencies, but they're also cross-platform and will get used on other OSes anyway so
