But who'd contribute when qt is already there? Getting contributions is nearly impossible. Getting them for a not so useful vanity project is probably impossib

I do not think that Rust enthusiasts will waste their free time reimplementing complex, boring stuff in Rust, only if they are paid, otherwise they will work on a new Rust game engine, or TODO app, or AI, WASM or something cool. Something as big and as high quality as Qt can't be implemented by 3 guys in weekends, maybe if they get Patreon support os they can work full time they can get the easy part done. I do not think Qt suffers from memory issues so nobody would pay to rewrite it, but maybe we will have some super simple GUI framework you could use for GUI in video games or some simple English only , zero customization , simple apps.
