!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I have bad memories of apps built in qt but that was decades ago, and my objection is visual.
JavaScript, despite any popularity, is a trash language for an application that runs outside of a browser
I suspect that your visual objection may be similar to mine, but over the past several years of being subjected to electron trash, using apps written in Qt kind of reminds me now of a simpler time. Nostalgia is a powerful drug, isn't it?
That all being said, I do find myself preferring the look of GTK apps lately, in spite of the rather controversial direction their design has taken.
