…which appears to wrap the png crate. (Good, so not a rewrite)

On macOS and Windows, the menubar is native. On Windows, context menus are, too. On macOS it‘s a small patch away, we just haven‘t gotten around.

What’s the difference between having your data in an AWS data center versus having it in Hetzner’s data center from the point of view of “private data in cloud”?
(Good move IMO nevertheless)

If you scroll all the way down, you can see at least a similar look of “the band” :)

The closest I can think of is for you to insert one or multiple soft-hyphens.

We do have initial support for screen readers. That’s using accesskit, or Qt when using the Qt backend.
It’s still basic, some controls like text input need work, or customizing the focus chain.
Building blocks are there and will need further polish.

We're working on interop, so that when you select Slint's Skia renderer on top of Vulkan or Metal, you can import a wgpu texture if wgpu's Metal or Vulkan adapter was chosen.
What kind of feature set do you need?

We're not trying to be clever, TBH. There are many excellent alternatives out there in the Rust world. Our choice of Rust is primarily a technical choice, and later we found out that it's also a fantastic community to be part of.
Most of us have our roots in the open source world, many (most?) of us learned coding because we were able to look at open source code, make changes to it, recompile and play with it.
We're trying to give back to the open source community and at the same time earn a living by asking the people who use Slint for proprietary apps (i.e. not giving back) to support us by purchasing a license.

I think the distinction that you may be missing is between software generally licensed under the Apache license and software that is part of the Apache project and governed by the Apache Software Foundation. The latter may choose not to include GPLv3 software in their project, but software outside of the ASF umbrella that's licensed under the Apache license can be combined with GPLv3 software.
