Why is it a pain? I'm interested as eons ago I started an automatic binding generetor for #LibertyEiffel that uses the same wrapper/binding infrastructure used by Python. And I should soon restart working on it 😅
it's a nice binding, very pythonic, without being too different from GObject api. Given the obvious different things (like define a gobject subclass property. Or how enums are named, etc), you can read gtk docs docs.gtk.org/gtk4/ and write almost correct code at first try.
But then you want to do something more exotic, like define your enum. you can't. And many other little thing.
Or try to assign a complex model to an AdwComboRow, then you may want to assign a Gtk.ClosureExpression, which for what I can tell it can't be created.
Unfortunately the project looks like it's in need of some love.
And TBH sometimes Gtk4 it's in your way on itself. Why GtkSearchBar is final? it's a container. It need a child element to work. I would like to subclass it, attach an ui template, setup the logic into the subclass and then reuse this subclass in another ui template. You can't, because it's final. You have to wrap it in another non-final widget, let's say a GtkBox.
That's my experience. I'm not an expert in GObject/Gtk nor in PyGObject. I'm just trying to follow the documentation. And my exasperation also stems from the fact that sometimes I can't rtfm...
Yeah, it proved to be essential in the last conference I attended. On Android I use #Giggity but #LinuxPhones are the future. So thanks for working on this! confy.kirgroup.net/
He had to write some excel formulas, and he was writing them in 'pseudocode' before putting the formula together, while commenting about "why I can't write formulas in a sane language".
So I've spent my evening (and part of my night) doing this:
Updated the ansible playbook which configure my VPS almost up to date with the real state of my VPS. Things have started to diverge many moons ago. Now is quite back on track to be able to run without any unwanted side effects
Installed Dentrite matrix homeserver with a couple of bridges, using the aforementioned ansible playbook

Still didn't tried to build it.. The disk where I found first-half had newer code for front-end, but was missing the backend. The disk where I found the backend had an older code, but with divergent history (because, why push code on remote...). So I'm not sure backend code is up-to-date with latest frontend...

in reply to Lemmy • •@Lemmy Why a link inside a button... It's... quite unusual..
And the padding on the button (which it doesn't respond to user action) makes clicking on the link a little bit more difficult than it should be.
I know.. I should have opened an issue, or better send a patch.. but I'm lazy, sorry :D
