"textContent": "> it’s important to realize that **GTK is meant to be built with a complementary platform library that extends its functionality when targeting a specific platform**.\n\nSomebody please help me understand this correctly: one can either build with plain GTK4 in order for their app to integrate into **any and all** platforms, or build with GTK4 + a specific platform library in order to target **only that specific** platform? Did I get this right?\n\nBecause after reading all that (and seeing those horribly ugly UI screenshots) I'm more confused than before. However it all seems to me that they indend to take over the very base of UI building _for any and all Linux_ , and leave it to individual distros to provide only the narrow niche of widget tweaking. Kinda how google took over the web standards, or cloudflare for gatekeeping, and I'm sure there would be other examples of forced centralisation.\n\nAm I hallucinating?! Do we live on Planet Highlander where **_there can be only one_** - of anything...?!?\n\n* * *",
