@retr0id Web technologies aren't an option for portability. It's like calling Java cross platform just because somebody else did all the heavy job of porting a VM, when the program actually requires a specific version of the specific implementation.

How do I tell them to go fuck themselves without having a Reddit account?

@retr0id nobody cares about GTK portability because GTK is developed primarily for GNOME now, which is mainly a Linux thing (not really sure how well GNOME works on other *nix like operating systems)

Meanwhile, the program that GTK was developed for still uses the GTK 2 branch. It's the GIMP, and, unlike GNOME, it's useful on other platforms. But the GTK is so broken now that the even GTK3 port was never finished, not to say GTK4.

@a1ba I've used gtk3 in the past for simple apps and didn't *hate* it, do you think it would be a sane choice in 2023?
