From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Did they finally switch to Qt?
why would they? gnome has primarily used gtk for a lot of time. also, what do you mean "finally"? it's not like gtk is some kind of abandonware
I was joking. It's not abandonware, however it's an atrocious development toolkit compared to Qt.
why
Cause gnome has been on a steady decline ever since gnome3.
The G in GTK literally comes from GIMP
What do you mean "not anymore"? You can't rewrite history... The G in GTK comes from GIMP. It was formerly called GIMP ToolKit.
I was replying to the comment thread suggesting they should switch to Qt.
Ah, well you probably should've replied to the root then.
By not anymore, I precisely mean that it's not "GIMP ToolKit" anymore, it's just GTK with no meaning at all.
@interceder270 @Aatube Pretty sure Gnome dominates the Linux Desktop... https://strawpoll.com/most-popular-linux-desktop-environment #linux #gnome
