Other/future projects • Re: GTK2 revival

Again, Daemonratte didn't do anything wrong... he just showed me something that's really hard to look away from about this community and took a lot of the wind out of my sails.

I was reading through all of Daemonratte's posts in this and the Qt6 threads last night and getting the opposite impression. Seems to me that part of what Daemonratte is saying is, "you should go forward with Pale Moon development and exploring new toolkits, I've got the gtk2 tail covered - I'll make my own gtk2-ng builds and add things into them that weren't previously available, I'll revive Galeon and work on other gtk2-ng UXP projects and gtk2-ng Desktop environments myself" (which, if you look at the original Galeon objectives is a pretty cool idea). gtk2-ng, if it is going to be successful, is going to need a browser to showcase what it can do. You should definitely be focusing on future technology, because UXP still has so much untapped potential. Let the people who are passionate about the older technologies keep UXP alive in those arenas. Not your problem I don't think.

Doing anything else would be like worrying that you have to support KDE3 because the Trinity Desktop Environment exists, but that's never been the case. Let the TDE folks deal with keeping KDE3 alive and in use.
