If GTK4 is demonstrably worse for non-GNOME applications, why use it? Non-GNOME applications should remain on GTK3. Time and time again GNOME people have insinuated that GTK is only intended for GNOME and not really for third party/independent applications. I state this as one who dutifully ported a niche app from GTK2 to GTK3 and learned what a train wreck GTK4 is for such an app and am entirely discouraged about the future of GTK. What was the rationale for changing column names from deposit/withdrawal to this ambiguous wording? Already GNC's column layout is opposite of the manual check registers I've been using for 40+ years and that leads to mistakes in one or the other for me so the last thing that is needed is more ambiguity. Apologies if I'm missing something by jumping in so late. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
