I find it hilarious that #Ubuntu went all in on #Gnome, but now #UbuntuTouch is essentially #QT only. Even as a #KDE fan-blort though... I miss my #Firefox. Maybe one day Gnome will create a version (4? 5?) that doesn't depend on #X11 and we'll see Gnome on Ubuntu Touch? Until then, I guess we're stuck with #Phosh / no #GTK apps in #UBports.

Wow. I honestly didn't set out to use that many #hashtags in this toot.. 😮

@Blort @UBports @PINE64 I just wished we could move away from X11 and do pure Wayland... Why aren't we doing that? 🤔

@Blort @UBports @PINE64 Meanwhile I'm building the GTK Library on Ubuntu Touch... To understand why GTK can't run on pure Wayland... And whether I can fix it 🙂

@lupyuen @Ubports @PINE64

That... makes my brain hurt.

Glad you're doing it, rather than me... 🙄

@lupyuen @Ubports @PINE64

Time to get acquainted with bugzilla.gnome.org... and the medicine cabinet.

Waves mournfully goodbye as @lupyuen disappears quickly down the mobile Linux stack rabbit-hole...

Call me when you have it working under #Wayland... on the #Pinetime.

@Blort @UBports @PINE64 Just realised that mobile apps are very easy to render... No need for windowing, client side decorations etc... So I'm porting to EGL on on ! Imagine the same app running on PinePhone AND ! 😀

@lupyuen
You really are a glutton for punishment, aren't you?... thank goodness. 😁
