Timelines change based on interest.

Servo is a new browser rendering engine in Rust - seems interesting and gathering steam.

Don't be too fatalistic - every time the corpos have come for the internet they have been circumvented. I don't see it stopping now - especially since people like us are tired of this brand of bullshit.

I try not to be, but attention does need to be called to it, and I see a lot of handwaving away in regards to Mozilla. People should be demanding more answers from them to at least delay enshittification a little to give more time to the alternatives like Ladybird and Servo to develop and refine for widespread usage

Which thanks for pointing me towards Servo, I missed that one lol, but I still don't think it has yet achieved feature parity with Gecko or Chromium

There is a point when throwing more ressources at a problem will not increase the speed.
