Status of vorta-go?

[drekbour]

Came here investigating why vorta is the biggest memory user on startup of a small system. Saw a mention of PyQt and mention of checking out vorta-go which one would naturally expect to be much lower profile.

At point of writing, activity seems to have paused on vorta-go. What is the current status?

I did Vorta-Go as experiment to learn about the state of the toolchain around Qt in Go. It's based on the same UI files, but most functionality isn't implemented.

I found that Qt in Go was a bit hard to work with and I couldn't get translations to work at all. Using Go will also limit the group of people able to contribute. So with Borg being based on Python, it makes sense to stick with that for now.

Can't argue with that as a clear representation! Thanks.
