What's an actually good way of GUIs? It seems that every way has some really soykafty flaw. Going native requires tedious and time-consuming ports, Electron is tremendously bloated, other toolkits are either immature or difficult to use.

You have to figure out what trade-offs you want. In order to get something you have to sacrifice something.

>>32969 Qt 95% of the time. Has been around since the 90s, not too bloated, comes with tons of non-gui tools and is in C++

>>32983 while i can see that it's not an issue for something like vscode or atom which are both near IDEs, it definitely is an issue for a chat or notetaking application like discord or notion respectively.
