It turns out that there is a GUI Toolkit, from the GNU project. It is still under development, has a small “ecosystem” in the form of its IDE, file manager, WM, photo viewer, etc. It even receives grants from FSF, although if nobody needs it, you could stop the project. It is not that it is extremely unpopular. Nobody develops graphical programs on it at all, except for the developers of Toolkit. Even against the background of GNOME and GTK, nobody paid attention to it anyway. Some developers have rewritten their programs from GTK to QT, to which there may be questions about the licensing policy. Why did it go unnoticed? Is it because of ObjC, which is extremely unfamiliar to those who do not develop on Apple devices? Or is it because it just copies NextStep and macOS developments and wants something unique of its own? But it seems that we already have GNOME, which already resembles Aqua in its design. And Avahi and systemd are like Bonjour and launchd in macOS. Maybe there is something else I don't understand, please explain me, anon.

Looks really soul. What a pity it didn't become a standard toolkit. It would have solved the eternal GTK vs QT dichotomy, by simply following the GNU project. We use GNU/Linux, GNU is not just glibc, Emacs and GCC at the beginning, it is a whole layer of useful programs. Since GNU is used, we should have used its graphical framework, it is also an important part of the system. And then whoever wants to use non-standard solution can use it. But the community decided otherwise. Apparently, the solution for them is to knit all adequate people who want to work and be comfortable about what is better than KDE or GNOME. And then tolerate together with them, crashes or lack of basic functionality in the graphical interface of the OS, due to the fact that the retarded developer did not understand why people need this feature. And irrational RAM consumption by the desktop environment and programs written on such a toolkit, justify that unused memory is wasted memory. There you go, the ultimate clown world!

What went wrong? They stuck being a WM instead of evolving into fully integrated just werks no tinkering required DE. E17 had the same fate. And Rox.

WM is optional, it can be used to match the theme of an already installed system. You don't use DE from Chrome OS to use electron programs. Or COSMIC to use iced soft. And WM is represented in the screenshots and there is a complete desktop environment. It's got everything you need.

fell for bait award
I used to be a macfag years ago, even at the time my mac was ancient though, an iMac G4
That made me a macfag for a while and I still think apple's better than megashart (microsoft)
