    You don’t need libadwaita to do that. Lots of KDE apps are designed to work on mobile. Libadwaita just makes everything broken outside of Gnome.

        You sure did. Maybe libadwaita even includes tools to make it easier or something, I don’t know. I just think maybe the toolkit that breaks everything all the time isn’t the best example.

          I know there is a lot of hate around.

          Nevertheless I find it a good example, because I think they have implemented the adaptivity between big and small screen sizes very well.

            Call it hate if you want, but it is an intentional design decision to break compatibility with other DEs. That is a choice they consciously made and have been very clear in communicating. There are trade offs involved. I’m not saying it’s a completely irrational choice or anything, but it is aggravating for those of us that don’t use Gnome when we have to deal with libadwaita apps. Libadwaita is designed from the ground up to be a Gnome exclusive thing. It is not for Linux. It is just for Gnome. That is the developers’ stated intention.
