Linux UI according to Aster: GTK4: - Do you want to write GNOME? [Yes | Ask Later] Qt: - Forces me to use C++. The Devil himself weeps. iced: - Good concept if you can find the Forbidden Scroll held in the Temple of Yore containing the documentation. Flutter: - Flutter, like wings of a bird? Probably a seagull with how it looks nice in concept but will take your food and then poop on you. GTK3: - You are either too scared, too upset, or too busy to migrate to GTK4. Or you are GIMP. 1/2
Going through all the #AlpineLinux #Lomiri packages to find ones that I need to enable #systemd support for in #postmarketOS is quite the pain. But, it will be worth it when we have better stability and upstream parity. #MobileLinux
