Description

The qt5 client is no longer maintained, and hasn't been for years. The website should probably no longer display it as an available GUI client. Btw, I have been using tun2socks, so maybe that can be shown as a non-GUI option for Linux somewhere. I was actually really struggling to find a way to tunnel all of my traffic through SS on Linux.

Research direction

Open the getting-started page at the GUI clients section and inspect how the qt5 client link is presented. Remove that unavailable client from the listed options; treat the tun2socks suggestion as separate unless the page's maintainers confirm it belongs. Done means the page no longer presents shadowsocks-qt5 as an available GUI client.
