IMGUI and other GPU accelerated toolkits exist and have been created without billons of VC revenue.

In fact the entire Qt group is just work 650m EUR

Who said anything about billions? I just said that it costs money to pay people to work on OSS, which is accurate as ImGui is sponsored by companies and Qt is a commercial entity with infamous licensing. VC doesn't necessarily mean billions in funding.
