Go to http://www.gtk.org/download/index.php and visit link for Linux, Windows
and Mac OS X...you'll see that the last stable releases are:

a) 3.8 for Linux

b) 2.24.10 for Win32 and 2.22.1 for Win64 with the note: "Note that
these 64-bit packages are experimental."

c) no packages for Mac OS X

which is clear indication that GTK is no longer multi-platform toolkit
and is becoming GNOME-only.

Check the video link - the guy is explaining that GTK is no longer
suitable for apps which need many custom widgets, but is appropriate for
'small apps' using "default widgets" only.
