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.

Chrome would never use Cairo as it’s LGPL. I remember doing an audit of Chromium dependencies and they are all ZLIB/MIT/BSD. At one point there was an http://ffmpeg.so exception. One of the reasons is Google static links for better load time and runtime perf (no PLTs).
