See: Message-ID: <JnN_N.100141$yf_8.98740@fx14.iad> Tk is multiplatform and has bindings for Windows and MacOS. I guess Wayland is too much of a moving target, and the Tk devs don't want to bother when it just works fine under XWayland. And Tk has bindings for many languages. For example, Tk is included with Python, and the default development environment for Pyhton (IDLE) is based on tkinter.
