Custom ActivityIndicator?

[nk-alex]

I've been trying to create my own ActivityIndicator. My approach has been to create a ContentView with a lottie animation on it:

<ContentView.Content>
  <Grid BackgroundColor="#CCFFFFFF">
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
      <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
      <RowDefinition Height="200"/>
      <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
      <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
      <ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
      <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

    <skia:SKLottieView
      Grid.Row="1"
      Grid.Column="1"
      Source="loading.json"
      RepeatCount="-1"
      HeightRequest="200"
      WidthRequest="200"
      HorizontalOptions="Center" />
  </Grid>
</ContentView.Content>

The problem with this approach seems to be SKLottieView running on main thread, so if main thread is busy, I just get a freezed animation.

Is there any other approach I could use instead to achieve the ActivityIndicator behavior?
