This is very exciting. Here is the APK I downloaded. And the associated discussion.

It even already seems to support stylus input which is very exciting seeing as there has been talk of porting RNote to Android.

Doesn't KDE/Plasma (or Qt) have this for years?

[–] klangcola@reddthat.com 49 points 2 days ago

Yes, and a few KDE apps work great on Android.

But more FOSS is more better, so GTK on Android is great news for both Android users and GTK developers

Yes, e.g. Krita has long been available for Android tablets.

darktable on Android would be awesome, I don't think there's currently any good FOSS raw development software for Android.

It might not be as good as Darktable but Snapseed which is natively made for Android can develop raw photos

seems to not be FOSS from a quick web search?

No. Snapseed is Google. Google is evil.

We could have a neat little internet comment war about personal opinions on Qt...

But it's the weekend and I'd rather not.
