MATE gone, walk the plank did he

So when did Mate disappear? It would be so awesome if it went to qt.

The MATE edition was a community edition, not an official edition, and we dropped it a few months ago because there was no one willing to maintain it anymore.

The individual packages are all still in the repository, though.

That is a matter you have to pick up with the upstream developers. :man_shrugging:

They have chosen gtk as their widget toolkit, because MATE is after all a forked continuation of GNOME 2. :man_shrugging:

I disagree. Anyway that would require a huge amount of work, so they’re very unlikely to do that.
