Well, not all people have the expertise or willingness (in case of volunteers) to work on this. Switching to Rust would allow them to leverage somebody else's work.
Also, GObject itself made a lot of sense in an era when C was dominant. Maybe now, not so much.
- throwsincenotpc 10y agoSwitching to Rust isn't going to solve Gnome management problems. You could make the case that they should ditch Gtk and adopt Qt, it would actually make more sense than rewriting Gtk in Rust given the amount of work it represents. But you complaining about the tools that don't exist is still ridiculous, the problem is why these weren't developed at first place.
- matzipan 10y agoObviously, it won't. But it would at least free up some manpower.
