I’m continually sad that Skia is killing all other vector graphics libraries, given how poor its documentation is, how difficult it is to build, etc. :( Especially since Microsoft is effectively deemphasizing D2D (which is excellent). Cairo needs more investment.
(Note that Skia already does certain things differently on different platforms, including using DirectWrite on Windows.)

Didn’t realize that. Do you know if there was ever attempt to have a D2D (or CG) backend to Skia?

Skia doesn’t really have the concept of backends for vector graphics rendering beyond the CPU/GPU split. Just for fonts and other misc. stuff.
