My own dots on waybar, im not sharing for now

we already had a network manager, it's called ``nmtui``
Lluciocc@reddit (OP)
no way broo, i wasn’t knowing that at all. Nmtui is a TUI (its in the name), mine is a GUI, and (according to me), its way easier to understand a GUI than a TUI

Why GTK3 when GTK4 exists and the former will go EOL before the latter if it hasn't happened already?
Lluciocc@reddit (OP)
Because i prefer the way Gtk3 is made.. yeah its EOL, but i thinks its way easier to code with
PureTryOut@reddit
Too bad you don't like GTK4, but developing something in a toolkit that's already EOL is really not a good idea. If only because less and less distributions will be able to ship your application over time as they will all be dropping support for GTK3 eventually, if it hasn't happened already.
Do note that there are alternatives you can look into using, toolkits like Qt come to mind.
