After some research, I found a few more serious issues with Gtk3. I will
not bother filing bugs as the issues seem too ingrained to the
implementation.
Here are some problems:
1) TGtkWidget makes custom drawing an inaccessible private field value that
cannot be set. What this means is that only
I don't know if it is the same for GTK 4 buut for GTK 1,2 ,3 the problem was
that the API isn't stable. It is work in progress. So for every dot version you
get new functionality. Until they decide it is time for a major release and
gtkX+1 is born, where gtkX becomes obsolete soon. The moment

It is not known how much it even matters for the subset that LCL uses.
Hi,
I'm sorry, maybe a stupid question. Why trying to implement Gtk3 when
we have Gtk4? Gtk3 will be outdated very soon and the problem will be
the same like with Gtk2.

Kostas,
We already have an object oriented layer to interact with controls. That
layer is the LCL. What you are saying is it makes sense for each widgetset
to create their own separate and independent class hierarchy, or to use
TWidgetInfo, or have something akin to:

Respectfully, I believe the current underlying implementation of Gtk3 is
fundamentally a bad design making it unnecessarily difficult to work with.
I do not see it being completed and see its poor design as a large part of
the reason it has been languishing for so long.

Thanks, Michael. Now, next step - how can I donate to this specific project?
The only thing I about specific project donation is following:

Last year in September 2021 I wrote this list asking about the status of
the Gtk3 widgetset implementation for Lazarus. The consensus at the time
seemed to indicate that the package was still incomplete and had no
maintainer.
Over the past few days, I have been attempting to add Gtk3 widgetset
