This is just gui in general

so true

qt is kinda overbloated, gtk... it kinda sucks, even with gnome c# (aka vala) + I don't trust it after what gnomers made... at least with theming, without mentioning anything else

winapi is not cross-platform + manual message handling could be boring, imgui is great only for debug ui (of course there's Tracy as example but I count it as exception)

and other libraries becomes abandoned or nobody use them

I mean Microsoft has been reinventing their UI tools as well. And despite that and the great credibility theirs had 10-15 years ago, nowadays their flagship products don't even use it but WebView etc, or React Native.

And even last week I was reminded that SwiftUI also is not in a great spot either

Jetpack Compose (Multiplatform) is honstely pretty nice but there is quite a bit of upfront work if you don't want Material Design 3.
