Other/future projects • Re: GTK2 revival

So Ubuntu users will have gtk2 intact at least until 2036. What that means is that 16 years after being declared dead by Gnome, gtk2 will still be supported by Ubuntu

No, gtk2 already does not get security or any other updates, and by 2036 Ubuntu 26.04 will only be getting critical security updates to things like the kernel. Also, you are missing @athenian200's main point - he doesn't want to be the guy working on the browser whose users have to run 5 or 10 year old versions of Ubuntu to run it. And if your developers don't want to develop it then you can either fork it or not have it at all.
