Speaking of using other programming languages with Gtk, I've seen https://github.com/diamondburned/gtkcord4 (Discord client written in GTK4 and Golang)

A decent native Qt based e-mail client for one. Kontact/kMail is janky and don't get me started on thunderbloat. Evolution is just perfect and GTK3.

Thanks for your feedback, and I am not an A.I :)

I made some changes to it. I used to work in marketing for a few years in between IT jobs and that might have bled into the article.

You're right, I should have put more of our personal story into it. I made some changes, thank you for the feedback :)

I'm a 38 year old mom and I work in IT. I know, I'm rare :)

I am a real human but I read my post again and I can see why. I made some changes based on the feedback because it does seem like an ad (but I can assure everyone that it is not).

Gnome needs a bunch of extensions to make it look like Windows. I know KDE does a better job, and that Windows 11 might just be a rip off of KDE. However, most of the best apps are based on GTK and not QT. So for myself, I've been using Cinnamon for years.

I let my daughter try all three anyway and she actually liked Cinnamon the most.

I added some of this to my blog article so that future readers can get more background.

The author is kinda crazy. I am sad Wil Wheaton got bullied off of Mastodon.

 
 

In the year 2006, a time of burgeoning technological advancements, my life took an unexpected twist that led me down a path I could never have imagined. It all started when my boyfriend, Roy Schestowitz, came up with a daring plan to clone cell phone service and make free calls. His enthusiasm for the audacious idea was infectious, but little did we know that our escapade would soon escalate into a high-stakes chase with the Greater Manchester Police, forever altering our lives.
