I think it’s better to do a good job once rather than five or six bad jobs, but we all have different priorities.

What specifically to you about cross-platform UI means bad job? I.e. what functionality does Windows specifically support that must work when running the application on Windows that Gnome, for example doesn't? (Or any other GUI/OS comparison)

The way you worded this message could mean either a) people should focus on a single platform using native frameworks, or b) people should use a cross-platform framework instead of spreading themselves too thin. Maybe even both?

  • I suppose it’s hard to follow a thread across multiple comments, but like I said, cross platform UI toolkits give sub-par results.
