    1. Gnome is a DE, GTK is a GUI toolkit
    2. I would NOT say it has been on decline. It’s pretty good for its target. There also hasn’t been any regressions I can see except for the obvious Nautilus. (I use MATE, but mostly because of its looks)

        1. Not anymore
        2. GIMP ≠ GNOME by a fucking mile
        3. GTK isn’t from GNOME either

          What do you mean “not anymore”? You can’t rewrite history… The G in GTK comes from GIMP. It was formerly called GIMP ToolKit.

          I was replying to the comment thread suggesting they should switch to Qt.

            Ah, well you probably should’ve replied to the root then.

            By not anymore, I precisely mean that it’s not “GIMP ToolKit” anymore, it’s just GTK with no meaning at all.
