Not only Unity...

I would say to Unity developers, don't use Godot.
For 3D games, check out the engine: Stride Engine or Flax Engine.

Alternative Game Engines for Marooned Unity Developers
Flax Engine: C# and C++, Global Illumination system, Visual scripting, Full Source Code Available, 4% royalties after $250,000 (threshold is per quarter, not all time). The engine honestly looks really good, so it could be worth taking a closer look, but does lack tutorials.

Unity Face Mass Protest After CEO Purchases Malware Company, Lays Off Hundreds, & Calls Devs Idiots
Flax (4% royalty after 100k revenue) looks to be the most Unity-like, and seems to be pretty polished, if also new and lacking features. That's all I know about it so far. Its pricing model is similar to Unreal's and, like Unreal, it's source-available (but not truly open-source).

Why Are Modern PC Games Using So Much VRAM?
Aside from that, for more foundational information about how things like rendering and shaders work, there's a plethora of content out there such as NVIDIA's "Life of a Triangle" blog post or Fabien Giesen's "A trip through the Graphics Pipeline" blog post. There's really too much to link, so I'm just gonna link this treasure trove of resources covering dozens upon dozens of articles, presentations and blog posts from general computer graphics, GPU programming and architecture, software development, OpenGL-specific resources for getting into graphics programming, etc.

Hi! This is my Vulkan renderer called Croissant. I decided to learn Vulkan and graphics techniques by creating a renderer. Although it is still a work in progress and lacks several features, I hope that sharing my project may be helpful to others who are also learning!
Hybrid Rendering Engine by Angelo1211
- Has anyone switched from web dev to graphics programming?
- Story: My (failed) attempt to jump to graphics at Big Ns, as a generalist C++ dev
- Is there a good, open source, realistic OpenGL renderer for us to use?
