I am aware of KDE5 and Cairo back-end. I am just testing out stuff to give
feedback and see how much improvement has been done.

The current beta1 AppImage outright crashes and shows crash report screen with
Cairo. I am uploading a screenshot for it also, since the crash screen also
have smaller fonts than standard Qt font.

The problem is that KDE5 VCL is not usable either. I use GTK 3 for stable use.
Heck, I would go back GTK2 for daily stability if it wasn't deprecated. It was
much more snappy than current GTK3 VCL and it could handle huge list of Noto
fonts and weird fonts better than GTK3.
