Look at these sponsors! I wouldn’t use Ladybird in 1750 BC.

    Agreed. I looked into this and it seems like an honest effort to try and prevent a total Chrome monopoly.

    A fresh browser is a massive project. Web standards are massive, and complex, and growing.

    It would be nice to see Firefox killing it, but they aren’t.

      there’s another non-fascist browser rendering project yknow, with less hype around it but just as promising imo

      and also it’s made in rust so you know it’s good

        The very first text on that page:

        Servo aims to empower developers with a lightweight, high-performance alternative for embedding web technologies in applications.

        That’s not quite the same as a browser trying to support web standards.

        Though I do want to see servo succeed too.

        And why is ladybird fascist?

          devs are charlie kirk stans, and consider(ed, they seem to have changed course on this, good) gender neutral pronouns to be “too political”
