Why does Gnome get to have power over what was the GIMP toolkit?
Why do they get to userp and control us? Why do they control the
software ecosystem? Who made them boss?
no it got fatter with the GTK3 transition just like xfce. remember GTK3
is only useful for people who make software that can take advantage of
it features. basic desktops like xfce and mate were fine on GTK2 and
only got bloated going to GTK3.
Everyone transitioning to GTK3 is a sign of fear that the GNOME devs
will abolish GTK2 in the near future. GNOME and Red Hat hold a monopoly
over the Linux world.
