> Developing for desktop Linux is still a pain in the ass, and I really wish the Linux community had agreed on One Desktop Framework To Rule Them All

Not going to happen. And even if it would happen, very soon there would be a split, because some super important addition to CoC wasn't accepted, or because someone committed a wrongthink on a public platform, or because some patch of snowflake dev superstar was rejected, or whatever else.

Hell, even Microsoft cannot agree with Microsoft on One Desktop Framework To Rule Them All, so it is hard to expect that from the Linux crowd.
