Why is gtk3 such a mess?
>>
>>54491490
it's technically a development version
GTK4 would be the new stable version

That's what you most likely meant.

I've only played around with this framework for a few days.

The biggest turnoff was the it made me build UI from code.

Programming languages are for writing logic, not building fucking UI. Just come up with some xml shit like xaml, html or android's views.

Less painful and forces you to separate presentation from logic.

why do retards post 3dpd in their OP's?

Firefox using gtk3 is the worst

GTK can build UI through XML. There is even a Design tool called "Glade" for that job.

>>54491490
Gtk3 is great.

I wouldn't know, I've only used to make a simple program that allows to interact with some hardware we have at work over a serial port (I could keep using Python for that, but less techincally-inclined people were supposed to use it as well).

It wasn't anything fancy and I'm reasonably sure it could be made in a more efficient manner but for the most part gtk3 did its job and stayed out of my way

Intentional Red Hat/Gnome strategy, same as with systemd. The goal is to reduce all Linux distros to Red Hat Linux "flavour" status and make all applications be written exclusively for Gnome interface. These guys are worse for open source community than Steve Jobs and Gates combined.

are you conscious where are you?

It's supposed to be a cross-platform toolkit but is solely developed for the needs of Gnome.

If Gnome devs don't need or want a feature, it will be broken in a minor version without an announcement.

The real question is, if GTK is so bad, why aren't more people using Qt?

>quter name
>emulates native appearance of other desktops when used within them
>better looking
>more active development team
>file-picker

>>54497004
People are using Qt. Even outside Linux applications. the /g/tk cucks don't like to admit

Also, Qt's native file picker is just as shit. (See lxqt and lumina)
