Current Issues with the Qt Project – From the Outside Looking In
That's exactly what we are doing with QSkinny: https://github.com/uwerat/qskinny, we have been using it for a customer project for years now...

Am I the only one miss C++ application GUI that is so much snappier and responsive than todays GUI framework such as Electron or others using python, JS etc?
Not really, or at least, not fully. The roadmap for Qt 6 somewhat vaguely intends to have a C++ API for Qt Quick Controls (now there is, but very limited and private with no compatibility, and ugly to use). I think they are seeing that QSkinny can take some market from them.

High performance pixel perfect applications. Qt vs wxWidgets vs GTK+
Do you think that an approach like QSkinny would work for you? I've not used it myself in practice (just running the examples, and looking at the code), but the idea of it is that it uses Qt Quick as a backend (so I guess in Qt 6 it would use OpenGL/Vulkan/Metal/etc as needed without you having to do the abstraction), and IIRC it uses some of the private APIs that Qt Quick Controls use as well for the C++ side. QSkinny doesn't require to use QML though (should be optional, but I think C++ is preferred/more tested). It has been said also that during the Qt 6 timeline, there might be a C++ public API for Qt Quick Controls.

Qt 5.15.3 Open Source released (1 year after it being commercial only)
It kind of is (with a 3rd party library). Or you can use the private API (which I would not recommend). A public C++ API for Qt Quick Controls is planned as well, but I'm not very optimistic on the time frame.
