    Switching the UI framework sounds like a massive refactor.

    Qt is by far the better framework. This could also be a chance to implement a super UI/UX, it could also be a complexity hell. I will have a look at the project, let’s see if the outcome wil be a better product.

      Not on Sway, every Qt app i’ve used feels like it tries to put in every option and dialogs always look too busy, GTK is quite abstractive and opinionated but i’ll deal with that
