It seems that it is based on Qt, so there might be a easy way to fix this unless they’re creating their controls from scratch. I know QML can be used as a canvas to draw custom controls, so it depends on the code.

Certainly one of the things is to keep building stuff. I’ve recently decided to write a small app (I went for a clone app because I don’t want to deal with designing it) and it has really forced me to learn SwiftUI (I’ve only used UIKit professionally), while previously I’d read articles without much reason to hold on to them.

So if you want to learn something, find a project that will force you to learn that thing, but if the purpose is to learn, don’t try to make it an “original idea” or something like that. It would only lead to procrastination. Find an existing tool that makes use of what you want to learn and try to implement it yourself.

Seems like it allows self hosting as well. It seems to have more stuff indeed.

It isn’t a native UI, but the effort made to look native on each platform must be appreciated.

This is very useful. I think I’ll stick with it.

As much as I do like programming in Java, you have a good point.

Don’t any linux DE have something like a shortcuts app?
