.NET MAUI is coming to Linux and the browser

Is there anything we can do to stop it? Or will it come anyway?

It looks like it comes just as a wasm payload, so, you can only vote with your feet.

Why tho? We really need Silverlight reborn.

Also C# and .net overall are so damn good.

Anything to abolish the js and constant hacks upon hacks

You can make your own better system which supports GUI and provides a reasonable runtime that works on all current major platforms and provides development tools, years of ecosystem development, etc. etc.

If it's better than what MAUI provides and you can support it for years, I'm sure that could take over and many people would use it instead. But... will you and why?

I started moving to using GO and Fyne for cross-platform GUI tooling. GO 1.21 supports Windows 7 with Fyne. Ya still have to support Windows 7 for work. No more wasting time with managing a Windows installer.

QT Framework is still one of the best for cross-platform desktop applications when speed is key.

Searched the docs: No results for "Accessibility"

(Which is ok for some situations, but not for wide deployment like .net provides)

I want WASM+DOM so that we can use any language on the web

Like I said tooling. Means that the User is well defined where Accessibility is not an issue. The tooling I creating is for people that have to engage with physical equipment; from replacing parts to making sure a motor is working properly.

WASM and DOM in Rust: https://www.leptos.dev/

Uno can render to canvas or the DOM in C#: https://platform.uno/

Blazor renders to the DOM: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/apps/aspnet/web-apps/blaz...

Anything would be better than another UI toolkit made by Microsoft. They will abandon it in the matter of a few years like they did about 10 times already.

They may not be improved significantly now, but none of the toolkits got abandoned. You can still use anything from Win32 to MAUI today for a new app.
