Re: GTK+ scene graph

[Andy Tai <atai atai org>]

I hope I can still run gtk 4 applications on a virtual machine in the cloud somewhere that can present its display in a X server on my local machine--the VM probably would run Red Hat Linux or CentOS, and its can present a GNOME desktop via VNC in the fallback mode, or GNOME terminal via Xpra

This use case (accessing a remote GNOME session running on a VM) would work with no issues in the GNOME 2 days, and may work somewhat right now with GNOME 3, and I hope it will continue to work in the future where the GL support on the VM is not guaranteed.   But it shall be important for Red Hat distributions, likely a large part of GNOME deployment.

what "older computers" are we talking about? 10 years old? unsupported
GPUs with no drivers?
