Ladybird

By fascist funding do you mean the 250k yearly they seem to be getting from FUTO+ thousands on donations each month? And also, futo is probably the most pro-customer organization these days? Also even if you dislike other donors like Framework, why wouldn't you want a project like this to get funding?

Also, like it or not, if you read the blog you can see how they tested it to make sure the bytecode matched, and how this was done by a engineer not a random guy "vibe coding", which surprise surprise, AI is a tool indeed, and a good one if you get control of it.

And even me personally I'm not a fan but people are too quick to criticize, they built a custom engine themselves, at 90%+ the results of webkit, gecko or webSpider (i believe this was the name of chrome's), then they are building the browser on top of it at the same time, and they're on track to launch the browser alpha this year multiplatform and with multiple great devs hired + open source contributors, so that's not half bad.

This project should be of interest to people that think the team is good, bad, and all spectrums, in what universe is a user created browser with little to no funding, anti ads anti current monopoly bad? Give it a chance, other projects that have been in this for years are lagging behind ladybird which started "recently"

edit: clarifying, I just dislike this doomer mindset instead of trying to put things on a scale, the scale of the project is insane for the size of the team, and they're constantly pulling up with very good updates
