Hey @internet, @PureWeen and even @davidortinau! How are #XamarinForms things? Does there exist a feature/library that does a "placeholder" image loading? For example, let's say I have a 2MB image on the web and a 10KB image. I would want to load the quick one first... 1/4 This is not if it fails or something, but more the fact that when the app starts, it has a bunch of blank spots. If the internet is not playing nice, it may take 20 seconds to load. But I know I can either generate or load a "thumbnail" much faster and get a better UX... 2/4

So... #SkiaSharp v2 has gone stable!!! Incredible new features and options for you to play with! We are talking ARM, Musl, WASM, Vulkan, performance, APIs, GPU improvements. Many, many improvements across the board. Try it out now!

github.com/mono/SkiaSharp… A special thanks to all of YOU in the community who have taken the time to report issue, provide feedback, suggest changes, give recommendations and do the all important testing. Thinking of all the folks who helped get ARM in just in time, the help with WASM, the API reviews.
