Yeah, but now there are three, not just two. GTK, GNOME and Qt, rather than just Qt and GTK.

By that logic you also forgot iced, libcosmic, libxfceui4, kirigami, xapps, flutter, .NET Avalonia, electron/html, sdl/raw rendering, and probably alot more that I don't know or can think of. This really has been just GTK and QT for ages.

GTK was not always tied to Gnome. It was born with Gimp; and XFCE was remade into GTK making it faster than Gnome itself.

Gimp Tool Kit!

I wonder when Gimp will upgrade to GTK 4, and realize GNOME has twisted the GTK framework into a draconian railway to making a mobile app with rounded corners, and give up and switch to Qt like so many other apps have.

Inkscape was ported to GTK 4, and LibreOffice is in the works. Please read the article before commenting.
