Skia can use the GPU. What alternative do you propose? What other library is cross-platform, has a nice API, performant, supports text well enough, and can do both CPU and GPU rendering?

Perhaps Mozilla WebRender?

  I should have clarified that I am only asking about desktop solutions.

    Not sure what you mean but WebRender powers Firefox which definitely works on the desktop. You can use it to build desktop UI frameworks - see for example https://azul.rs/ https://azul.rs/

      Oh, I see. But it uses OpenGL, and I would have to guess it is being replaced by WebGPU / wgpug, correct?

        I don't think they've started such work but I don't really know.
