Don’t you like the Ladybird Browser and the browser based in Servo projects as alternatives?

They’re literally happening right now, not ready for prime time but with continued development and support they’ll become usuable

Servo is ridiculously behind Firefox

By that simple logic any new browser will be ridiculously behind Firefox. Firefox’s code base has been in development for nearly 30 years - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netscape_Navigator

Yes, and I seriously don’t expect Ladybird to get anywhere near being a complete browser like Firefox.

Even the idea of being a “web standards first” browser seems prone to failure, looking at how many websites these days “work best on Google Chrome”.

Firefox follows web standards pretty closely, and then some websites don’t work correctly because they don’t support a new Chrome feature not yet in a proper standard. How will this be different for Ladybird.

I’ll be positively surprised if Ladybird gets to a point where it works for all websites, just like I hope Firefox continues to do the same.
