A comment on Qt 5.10 released. Parent comment
So not only there was the license issue, usually C devs would side with Gtk+/GNOME and C++ with Qt/KDE.
I remember a few language flame wars when Gtk--/Gnome-- were started, nowadays Gtkmm/Gnomemm.
Back in the day SuSE and Mandrake were the best KDE distributions for desktop users.
As they kind of faded way, KDE lost a bit of momentum.
Then there was the whole mis-understanding with their reboot, which was supposed to be dev only and distributions took it as if it was ready.
