> Why would I want to switch to Qt?

Because GTK is awful outside of Linux.




I'd argue GTK is awful inside of Linux because of client-side decorations (removal of the standard title-bar) that you cannot disable, removal of the menu bar, and the mobile/tablet first design (some people do use desktops and I'm not allergic to text).


> that you cannot disable

I'm pretty sure you can. I like them in most cases, though, just wish they'd gone the Windows/MacOS way of slowly intruding/overlapping a bit occasionally instead of reinventing the whole bar.


Is it? Why? Works fine for me.


Functionaly it is fine, but its sure doesnt look native on Mac OS or Windows.

Qt looks at least a magnitude better (more native) on those platforms
