“Built on Webkit”
At least it’s not Chromium. We don’t need Big G dictating the web.
- imbnwa 4y agoIts kinda interesting seeing this built on top of Webkit and something like Bun built on top of its JavaScriptCore component
- _andrei_ 4y agoFor me, "At least it's not Webkit" sounds more like something one would say. There are horrible bugs in Webkit that have not been solved for more than 8 years. Developers that had to build something complex on the web, with lots of custom interaction, animations, etc. learned to hate Webkit with passion (and Safari, and the worst of the worst - Safari on iOS). The Webkit team focuses on implementing new standards instead of trying get the engine to at least be decent when compared with the alternatives. It does work ok for most things, and it uses less energy, but it's objectively the worst mainstream browser engine nowadays.
