Developers: we don't feel like using GTK for new complex applications. We'd rather use Qt or ImGui or whatever. In fact, we'd rather create our own toolkit than use GTK. GNOME: okay, here is our 5-years strategic plan, mostly about inclusivity and promotion of GNOME. Note how we are not addressing your concerns. Please send us feedback. Imagine me forking GIMP to rename it, then claim I built this amazing image editing program that is now used by gazillions of people around the world. Now watch Seamly 2D team claim Susan Spencer came up with this great idea and built this open-source tool for fashion designers, but never mention principal developer Roman Telezhinsky who started the original project called Valentina and did the heavy lifting (continues to do in his original project).  @prokoudine I tried to imagine you forking and rebranding it, and stopped after reaching The PIMP (Prokoudine Image Manipulation Program) :) Weekly recap is out. Highlights: new releases of BeeRef's fork, Armory3D, and topologicpy, new features in @GIMP and @FreeCAD, @inkscape is looking for an experienced GTK4 developer More on all that: https://librearts.org/2023/04/week-recap-23-apr-2023/ Featured #b3d artwork by Charlotte Kügler Weekly recap is out.

Beside KDEnlive usage Glaxnimate can also produce SVG animation output in SVG file, and SVG animation can be displayed standalone on most browser by just inserting the SVG as an image, without any scripting. Recent new feature in Olive: press Ctrl and rubberband-select multiple markers to move them around, use a different color code, or delete To the few people who know me mostly from my activity with GIMP, I'm retiring from the project: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-web-list/2022-October/msg00000.html  @prokoudine Hey, it's always sad news to read when someone with your personal investment and so many contributions leaves a project. It feels like a big chapter is ending. But it's always also a good time to tell a big thank you. I'm sure you have plenty of new projects on the way, and I also hope you and your family will be safe in this fast-moving situation.

@prokoudine Yeah... The "GNOME Toolkit" 😛 is a dead end for non-GNOME software, especially cross-platform. Just fork it already and call it the "General Toolkit", or use something else.
@prokoudine To be fair, the GNOME Foundation doesn't handle anything in regard to the actual development direction.
