Servo already exists and is independent and written in a modern language and way ahead of this.
I mean, competition is good but they aren't the only independent browser engine.
Remind me in 2 years when this project becomes discontinued...
The project management may have some obvious problems (jOin dIsc0Rd sErVEr; w0rD "thEy" t0o p0liTicAl). But we really need an alternative to browsers funded by Google (Chrome and Firefox).
So I'll do my best to actually build from sources and see what can I help with. Attacking the author is helping nobody.
And for the folks who are saying "wHy n0t rUst", you can always show me the (rust) code.

I really wish they would publish flatpaks because I can't be arsed to either build the thing or get a non-standard precompiled binary to run on nixos.
Good luck!
It's hard to understand the purpose of this. The difficulty of the project (i.e. complexity of the web) is the real problem that needs solving. We don't need another fork of the browser-verse. We need a fork of the web itself.
They have a fork of the web. Its called the dark web. They use it to sell hookers and drugs.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
