Today I am upgrading my code from #qt5 to #qt6. So far it needed just few small edits, but the more effort will be needed to polish the UI to scale properly. It seems that the qt6 should handle arbitrary screen scaling better, I just have to learn the rules.

The result: Users can now install with a simple `apt install stremio` instead of wrestling with compilation issues.

https://thoughts.greyh.at/posts/celestial-gtk-theme/

@zquestz published an article on Gtk theming which I found fascinating. It is an overview of the kind of things you have to consider when trying to create your own theme for #Linux . He fusses over the little details that are very important when doing UI/UX design properly. He also made sure the themes worked properly on various Gtk desktop environments, including Cinnamon, MATE, and Xfce (three of the best DEs, in my humble opinion).

He also mentions the qt6gtk2 plugin for Qt which I did not know about. It translates Gtk themes to Qt themes so all of your applications, whether they use Gtk or Qt, have the correct theme. This is extremely useful since the impedance mismatch between Qt and Gtk is the biggest source of UI/UX inconsistencies in Linux apps.

Building Celestial: A GTK Theme Journey

I spend a lot of time on the computer, using a lot of software. This makes me acutely aware when things don’t quite work right. A button that renders incorrectly. Inconsistent padding. Unthemed dialogs. Even the best themes out there had small bugs that annoyed me. I care deeply about a smooth, consistent desktop experience.

Terminal Thoughts
By ditching the legacy #Qt5-heavy #welcome app, #openSUSE progresses toward cleaner, modern #UI tooling. More flexibility, a smoother user journey, and better control over when #greeters appear. #Desktop #Design #Linux https://news.opensuse.org/2025/08/21/os-welcome-makeover/
