It makes them interdependent on the qt company that is not the spirit of FOSS when you are dependent on a corporation. Why not just keep qt5 forever or at least qt6 forever since then already made the jump and ignore keeping upstream with the qt company. Meaning when qt7 comes out KDE will have hard forked qt6 forever after. That's what trinity desktop does with qt3 so technically its possible. I can see why Stallberg had ethical issues with KDE in the 2000s. Also my post no longer have reddit spacing.
>>102442698Does KDE team have expertise to maintain something as complex as a GUI toolkit? Their work on KDE doesn't instill confidence as bugs popping up in most random places look like a foundational issue and not just "we added this new feature but it's a bit buggy"

>>102443820why do you want to be dependent on a proprietary company?
>>102442698>>102442698It's not a problem for now
>>102443986Qt is just as much of free software as GTK is the difference is that Qt offers dual licensing to companies who want to use Qt for proprietary software
Does Stallberg still think qt is bad?
>>102442776This for sure. I've had a lot less headaches implementing shit using the base Qt framework than anything out of the KDE libs or K*rigami. That's not even touching any of the insane shit that Qt depends on, like the MOC.

>>102443986Qt has a FOSS version. If the Qt Group stops publishing the FOSS code then the last FOSS version may be forked. KDE has forked Qt before so it is doable.
qt is proprietary trash
konki is such a slut for my cock
>>102444137Denial doesn't help anyone. Accepting one's faults is first step of getting better. Even documentation-wise, KDE is lacking compared to its competitorhttps://api.kde.org/frameworks/kirigami/html/index.htmlhttps://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/getting_started.html
>>102446486NTA but I use XFCE
>>102446486Fuck Kirigami and fuck QtQuick/QML. Qt should have just overhauled QtWidgets to implement shit like GPU UI rendering instead of making a declarative mini-language frontend poisoned with JavaScript (and even at that, the implementation is fucking retarded.

>>102443176my shaft can only tolerate a certain amount of steel cold hardness.
Just use GNOME. It's FOSS top to bottom and always has been. Exists because KDE and Xfce were using proprietary toolkits.
