Yes, so much in Linux world is moving to newer GTK+s.

I just saw this Blue Recorder announcement moving onto Wayland and newest GTK. You might find it of interest for its use simplicity.

Too bad it was a just a flatpak package only.

No need for that because xfce menus automatically populates desktop files from XDG_DATA_DIR folders. Just add categories on /etc/xdg/menus/xfce-applications.menu file
