  • you can absolutely do these things yourself! but it’s also become socially acceptable, socially expected even, to outsource these kinds of specialized tasks to specialists.

    It’s not just a social issue. When we consider the planning and shopping and prep work and cleanup, cooking is (like most of the tasks you listed) enormously time consuming. Lots of people have so little free time in their lives that regularly cooking their own meals just doesn’t make sense.

    Cooking freezable meals in bulk can help, as can taking turns with someone else in the household (if there is anyone else). But the time cost is still significant.

    I’ve heard GTK programs don’t look great on Windows,

    They don’t look great anywhere, not even on Linux, unless you happen to be using a Gtk-based desktop.

    However, Gtk does have one thing going for it: the API is native to C, so it is easier to work with in that language (and easier to bind to other languages) than something like Qt would be.
