with focus shifted towards completing the port to GTK3

Is that a typo? I would have thought most software was shifting to GTK4 now?

I don’t know what GTK means and couldn’t find it in the link. Care to share?

Gimp Tool Kit, where gimp means Gnu Image Manipulation Program, where gnu means Gnu’s Not Unix. So, in short, gnu’s not unix image manipulation program tool kit.

Never realised the G was GIMP… hilarious that its namesake software is lagging so far behind

GTK4 is planned for 2050 (expect 5-6 year delay).
