Fedora Media Writer checksum?
According to the official Github page for Fedora Media Writer, it does:

Noob Question: Is there a need to verify ISO if I downloaded file via Fedora Media Writer
Fedora Media Writer's repository contains this document on the subject: https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/blob/main/CRYPTOGRAPHY.md
-
Fedora Media Writer has a very broken UI when using spanish
That's because it has been fixed already. The translatable string changed in this commit, and the translation tool apparently automatically mapped the old translation to it with a "Needs Editing" tag.

Fedora 36 is GO! Release: 2022-05-10
PS: for the ones using the official Fedora Media Writer to create a bootable USB from an .ISO... There's currently a new version in the making which is supposed to launch together with Fedora 36 - you can get preview-builds here: https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/releases and some additional info on it here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/L2QQJ5CNJOQ7ZGKXPUPVZ7DU5UJ6BVFO/

Chrome OS Flex is not available to be installed using Linux while being based on Linux(Gentoo). Ironical.

Rufus: The Reliable USB Formatting Utility
For anyone complaining that there is no nice GUI for dd on Linux and macOS, I recently discovered Fedora Media Writer [1] which works great for this job. Despite it’s name, it can be used with any ISO just like dd.

Reviving someone's old FOSS Project. Hope to have a release soon! ;)
FWIW, the Fedora Media Writer works with any distribution's images, just select the "custom image" option and point it to whatever ISO you have.

Will Qt support the Rust language by default? (just curiosity)
As an anecdote, the three top contributors to sixtyfps are ex-Qt people. I think it is not anecdotal that there is at least some degree of overlap and competition between Rust and C++, and that this is a market that surely The Qt Company is watching.

BeeWare – write Python, run as native everywhere
SixtyFPS (https://sixtyfps.io/) is in progress for Rust, but it is still early days. It also does not technically use a native toolkit (it uses Qt), but I believe that might be on roadmap. For traditional GUI apps, I think the lack of a table or tree widget is the most limiting for the time being. They have stated they intend to remedy that.

What are the best GUI libraries for a potentially “serious”/large project?
The most promising GUI hasn't been posted here, SixtyFPS. It's in it's early stages and not FOSS, but it's built by some ex-QT cats and has a lot of potential.
-
Is there a reliable and documented GUI library out there?
People have been recommending https://sixtyfps.io/ to me.

Is it worth writing a GUI toolkit in Rust?
There is already a project to make a Qt like GUI toolkit in Rust: https://sixtyfps.io/ It is really similar to Qt https://sixtyfps.io/releases/0.1.5/docs/rust/sixtyfps/index.html

Tauri – Electron alternative written in Rust
People are doing that too. https://sixtyfps.io/ is basically a Qt clone in Rust, actually developed by previous Qt developers.

I'm giving out microgrants to open source projects for the third year in a row! Brag about your projects here so I can see them, big or small!
spdlog, a pretty useful and more and more commonly used logging library for C++.\ SixtyFPS, an emerging GUI library for Rust, but you can use it in multiple languages. It uses OpenGL or Qt currently as backend (well, it's a new library and they wanted two from the get-go to make sure their abstractions are done right/well enough). They started a company this year for it too.

Why I choose Electron even when I wanted to use QT
Just so some are not aware, there's a new project called sixtyfps by some people who were in the Qt world for long. I didn't take a deep dive into it but it looks promising.
