Windows Forms is pretty much the successor to VB6 and I think is still supported. Still nothing like it on Linux though, even though people say Linux is way better than Windows for software development :/

The subset of GUI software is much much smaller than the greater whole.
I do agree though that any GUI programming on Linux is a pain compared to Linux / Mac. However the proliferation of web based apps, even those running in electron shows how valuable a truely cross platform GUI framework that is easy to use would be.
Google is trying with flutter and dart but last time I used it I felt it was still being iterated on far too quickly, maybe a bit ( maybe even now ) it will be more friendly to use.
