I just wanted to say: it's great seeing the first screenshot on macOS, and thank you all for making the effort to create great cross-platform software.

It's far easier to convince someone to move to a different OS if all of their existing apps work. Replacing each program that they depend on one at a time can be done slowly, over multiple years, and at some point you realise that you're not locked into an OS at all.

Reminds me of this post

My attempt of reducing the insane UI buttons everywhere to make it a bit cleaner

It is still way too much, and unlike other Qt apps (like QGIS for example) the panels are not all configurable.

I am sure it is really great software, but this cosmetic issue makes it extremely overwhelming to newcomers. People just dont expect this load from anything.

This looks like the specific kind of tool I’ve been searching for for a long time. Looking forward to trying it out
