what's qt you ask?
https://www.qt.io
they seem to be related to kde. which even before plasma desktop they have tried to make a desktop that looked like windowsxp as much as possible. down to konqueror which was an imitation of internet explorer. plasma then sought to capture enough people used to windows7, windows10 and so far windows11.
if it weren't for the hefty iso's. i would have slightly suggested for someone to try lubuntu. or fedora "kinonite". those are only two outstanding examples of what could be done with qt.
the trade-off is that it requires knowledge of really tedious c++ and object-oriented programming. maybe python and rust too. which is not what a hobbyist might be looking for. which causes him/her to choose visual basic.
