Yes please! I love that system so much I made it the default in my fantasy novels.

Servo and Ladybird are the two most serious ones right now. Andreas Kling, the lead dev from Ladybird regularly streams his progress and posts about new sites working. It's been pretty cool watching it over the years get better. iirc their current goal is to get discord completely working in browser on Ladybird.

Love React to. I hope one day I can use it in place of Windows.

Well, like an OS there are people doing entire ones from scratch like Haiku, Harmony and Serenity. It's a herculean task but its not impossible.

I'm hoping that Ladybird and Servo start forcing competition against Mozilla and Google.

Ladybird got like at least 250k in funding last year by Shopify. The project refuses to release binaries so you'd have to build it yourself. So far the team has completed a JS engine from scratch and hit a 100/100 on the acid3 test.

Servo's earlier in development but its got some preliminary stuff. They have a few full time devs. The project is written in rust so its getting a lot of hobbyist support too. Their main project is getting CSS compatibility.

Flow is a closed-source browser by some company. Their browser is in beta right now but as evident by this paragraph I don't know much about its project.

Idk how to check commit numbers on mobile but I'd say all 3 are in the thousands minimum.

Theres nothing stopping a new engine from being made. People wanna say its too hard or whatever but there are budding projects people are working on from the ground up. See Servo, Ladybird and Flow for non-Chrome/Firefox browsers. It's absolutely possible no matter what these naysayers say.

I feel one day people will learn to appreciate Brazilian pizza. We're not in that time yet though.

This is why I can never hate on hawaiian pizza. It is a true-born Canadian pizza, birthed from these frozen wastes.

Yep these are the best tools for that currently.

Oh man. This is gonna be fun. I already got all the stuff I need off the site. I can't wait.

This is actually way more common than people think. Lotta people think in order to upload music to streaming you need some label connection. Not the case. Just find a distributor like Symphonic, upload and wait for streams. Hope these guys can get their recumpence.

You ever seen that post about how classical music is closest to metal? Well Kerry King is our modern day Mozart.
