It actually hurt me a little how they made a perfectly wellade GTK app into a QT mess for no reason whatsoever. But oh well, I don’t maintain it and it’s not my place to complain much about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Basically using GTK alone became a lot of unenjoyable work for them because they didn’t want to depend on libadwaita and since its something they do for free in their free time it has to be fun.
having targetted both Qt api and the new Libadwaita api, this is going to happen more and more. the new GTK APIs are a pain in the ass and it’s pretty clear they only target GNOME, and since GNOME 4, there’s been no guarantee of API backwards compatiblity. it’s a nightmare.
I mean it works for countless other applications in the Gnome ecosystem, but as you said. If it isn’t fun for them it’s absolutely their right to switch
Easy effects.
It adds effects to your audio, allowing you to fix audio balance, pump up the basses, and take 50% of your CPU because you put too much effects

Like it still remains usable

Yes, for the Gnome ecosystem.
Gnome is dogshit though
Oh wow, looks at this nuanced opinion and awareness of taste /s
Oh my god, it even has a balanced down to upnvotes.
Not sure I follow. Which app?

I use it btw
see post
An app that also looked really good and fit into the rest of my ecosystem of Gtk apps
