Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System
It looks like the port was compiled with a binary SkiaSharp [0] since that requires Google tooling to build. Interesting to see the committer allowing this. Apparently it is not the first time.

System.Drawing just dosen't work
The library that I've had the best luck with is SkiaSharp with .net 3.1. That said, I agree with others that I'd update the version of .net if possible.
-
Open-source cross-platform C# library that encode .BMP files?
Found this issue that basically say it's not supported in skia directly, and it's right, from this page it seems only supported on iOS/Mac. This is pretty frustrating considering the documentation of SkiaSharp Encode() doesn't mention it.
- Easy-to-use 2D graphics libraries

Creating 2d Interactive Building Map with Blazor.
Yes, I'm not aware of any way to use either the canvas api or webgl directly. This project has bindings for the canvas API, but it hasn't been updated in two years:https://github.com/BlazorExtensions/Canvas. SkiaSharp seems a nice option too: https://github.com/mono/SkiaSharp. It supports graphics across a whole load of platforms, including Blazor on the web.
- What library should I use to make basic 2D graphics which is simple to use and that is able to quickly draw a bunch of particles (circles) on the screen with updating positions every frame? (Not the best description ever. I explain it better in the post's text)

Compress/resize images
If you want pure .NET, cross-platform, and future compatibility, SkiaSharp is the new way to do it.
- ImageSharp leaving the .NET Foundation due to licensing change

Problem using Plugin.Firebase on IOS
This seems to be a clash with skiasharp. The other package I have which uses skiasharp is Mapsui Possibly related to this issue with SkiSharp mono/SkiaSharp#1879

Blazor Hybrid looks amazing
This is interesting since SkiaSharp says:

The MonoGame Foundation launch
To highlight this shift, we are introducing a new website which is now fully automated with Github. The paint is still fresh, but we hope to expand it with more information about the MonoGame Foundation, like how it operates, and how to join it or contribute.

OSS Game Engines are increasing their stars on GitHub due to Unity's missteps
Yes, it is possible, but you need to use a game framework not a game engine.
Example of a game framework: http://www.monogame.net.

Unity's Trap
Monogame, though it doesn't do much hand-holding: https://github.com/MonoGame/MonoGame
Webassembly support is spotty, though in progress AFAICT.
Used by a few 2D games like Stsrdew Valley and Celeste.

Which tools should I use to create my game ?
Some that I am aware of and that support at least Windows and Android are (Monogame)[https://www.monogame.net/], (Cocos2D)[https://www.cocos.com/en/cocos2d-x], (LÖVE)[https://love2d.org/]. But there are likely many more. Even more basic ones which are just another abstraction layer on top of SDL (like (Oxygine)[https://oxygine.org/]).
