Don't feed the trolls. It's not funny when they are so blatant.
Great decision by Red Hat. I can't believe GTK 2 lasted this amount of time. Python 2 was ditched pretty quickly, in comparison. Maybe it's because GNOME has gotten incredibly good only "recently".

pavumeter - use it often
unique - it has UI? Really? OMG
A weird decision on Redhat's part.
And these are GTK2 applications that I use. I imagine people have lots more.

Btw, I don't use any GKT2 app anymore and I don't know of anyone that does.Last edited by Vistaus; 26 August 2022, 11:02 AM.

It is still possible to run these gtk2 apps using flatpak, so gtk2 could be removed from distros with little impact to the users.
I'm doing that in order to have GIMP running on my machine, as I blocked gtk2 in the package manager config.

Oh, come on, birdie, what's up with you today? We all know you. Especially us who have been hanging out in this forum for well over a decade. We all know you are a notorious TROLL in this forum, and have been since forever. So you shouldn't get upset when people don't like your posts. I thought you would feed on the hate. That's what trolls usually do, anyway.

Its not as if Microsoft supports Gtk 2.0 on Windows either and yet it runs perfectly well on that.Last edited by kpedersen; 26 August 2022, 10:22 AM.
