I genuinely wonder if our Linux users would be happy with Qt on X11? Like, I just assumed a lot of our users prefer GNOME forks and GTK3, and that eventually those desktops will move to GTK4 with a handwritten replacement for libadwaita and a ton of widget overrides.

It seems like at least on this thread, there's way more interest in Qt than in GTK4, Wine, or SDL?

I switched from XFCE to KDE Plasma (Wayland) a week or so ago, main reason was the lack of security with X11 since it's apparently insecure and the GUI isn't isolated. Other reason was the consistency and integration of Plasma, various theming options, and just the general appearance. I'm pretty happy with Plasma and it's use of Qt.
