Speaking of using other programming languages with Gtk, I've seen https://github.com/diamondburned/gtkcord4 (Discord client written in GTK4 and Golang)

A decent native Qt based e-mail client for one. Kontact/kMail is janky and don't get me started on thunderbloat. Evolution is just perfect and GTK3.

Thanks for your feedback, and I am not an A.I :)

I made some changes to it. I used to work in marketing for a few years in between IT jobs and that might have bled into the article.

You're right, I should have put more of our personal story into it. I made some changes, thank you for the feedback :)

I am a real human but I read my post again and I can see why. I made some changes based on the feedback because it does seem like an ad (but I can assure everyone that it is not).

Gnome needs a bunch of extensions to make it look like Windows. I know KDE does a better job, and that Windows 11 might just be a rip off of KDE. However, most of the best apps are based on GTK and not QT. So for myself, I've been using Cinnamon for years.

I let my daughter try all three anyway and she actually liked Cinnamon the most.

I added some of this to my blog article so that future readers can get more background.
