Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
For the commenters here: do we have something like VimR [1] for OSes other than the Mac that provides a file explorer sidebar with smaller font size (probably sans)?

Having trouble auto-restoring sessions using persistence.nvim and VimR
I'm loading sessions at BufReadPost (also tried BufReadPre, which didn't work) instead of VimEnter because I couldn't find a way to find out the "true" CWD at VimEnter. I use VimR, which seems to launch nvim without any arguments even when I launch it from the command line like vimr path/to/file.ext or opening a file in macOS Finder, and set the CWD to $HOME instead of path/to. So at VimEnter, I'm only able to restore a session saved for $HOME, but not my project directory.

Neovim in Swift?
https://github.com/qvacua/vimr and https://github.com/qvacua/neovim/tree/5f8dd8c4a33203277cf6058f559383626411693d are good places to start

Wanting to replace VSCode with VIm.
I've never tried a GUI version of Neovim, and this is the first I've heard of MacVim. Are you referring to VimR? If so, it seems like the problem could have been with the third party GUI software instead of the core Neovim software.

Looking for a neovim GUI with image previews
fvim and goneovim have support for gui-widgets.nvim which is a sort of protocol to define images and let Neovim GUIs display them.

A question about F# GUI frameworks
While there is Avalonia.FuncUI you can use Avalonia with only F#/Xaml as well, take https://github.com/yatli/fvim as an example it's an avalonia app and doesn't use the FuncUI DSL but you'll have to handle your views in an OOP'ish way
