Slint is under multiple license, including the open-source GPL and a royalty free license. What specifically bothers you about the licensing? (I work on Slint, genuinely curious)

Probably that it's not non copy left like MIT so they can't just use it without sharing code back.

But they even can. (royalty-free license)

For free without paying, like the other GUI frameworks.

		Correct. This is a class of products that I really would rather not go commercial for. It's extremely difficult to change after the fact so from a business standpoint it puts us in a place where if the vendor decides to start cranking prices or they sell their business and the new owner does, then we are in a really difficult position. It's not actually about paying money or not, I've signed up for many a patreon or what not to support open source projects I use. I fully believe in paying people for software. But for core things like this I do prefer MIT/APACHE.
