"textContent": "> Me, as I'm running Cinnamon in Linux Mint 19 I do have a few KDE/Qt5 applications installed, and they're working reasonably well. Thanks to Rob Savoury's backports I even have Qt6 installed, and I did build myself the Qt6 versions of Double Commander 1.3 and qBittorrent 4.6.7. Even installed the Kvantum engine for Qt5 and Qt6 theming - not perfect but it's working. So GTK and Qt can mix, willingly (and maybe with a sprinkle of luck).\n\nAgreed. Users can run QT applications on GTK based desktops and GTK based applications on QT desktops. Generally most desktops will make the applications in the other toolkit look native in terms of the theme as well. Theargument that we'd only consider QT if we found a large number of users to be using KDE is a poor argument for this reason, although there are other reasons that are more valid to stick with what we have for now. GTK4 would be a terrible choice.\n\n\n> Do we have an implementation ready? Well, not really.\n\nI posted a screenshot of a mostly working QT6 implementation.\n\n* * *",
