Why wasn't Pixman/Cairo tested but Skia was tested? I'm sure it has to do with the natural availability of these things on .NET but I just checked and Cairo still has binding pre and post Mono. I would consider this option strongly there is way more support for Cairo in just about everything than Skia.

Because it's not Skia that is tested, but SkiaSharp, which is a .NET / Mono wrapper for Skia. It was included because the work to make it compatible with .NET Core is close to completion and because it's promising work. I hope this clarifies. If there were Pixman/Cairo .NET Core wrappers in existence or close to completion, I'd be happy to update the post with them.
Thanks, I'll check it out.
