    GTK+4 was released? When??

    I’ve been compiling GTK+3 3.2x, the latest stable version about ten years ago and always wonder will they ever advance the major version. Years of installing XFCE4 and stuff and I always saw them pulling GTK+3 as a dependency. Never seen GTK+ marked 4 though.

    To be fair I haven’t visited their official website for a while though.

      GTK 4 was released in 2020, they also dropped the plus from the name in 2019. GTK 4 is much more opinionated and GNOME oriented than 3, I don’t know if XFCE will ever switch to it honestly. It is always possible thought, the Elementary desktop uses GTK4 and still manages to be visually distinct from GNOME.
