        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.
