Browsers have been historically the biggest and most difficult projects, so hard to say why it wouldn’t be. When they can start promising 20k bounties for segfaults, they are getting close.

- jve 1y agoAs someone who has first encounter with the ladybird - why is it exciting? And how could ladybird attract so many sponsors for such a project? Why wouldn't they fund Firefox instead if they want to achieve some diversity in browser engine field? I'm curious, not skeptical.
- 9cb14c1ec0 1y agoIt's hard to fund Firefox when Mozilla spends as much money as they do on other things than Firefox.

- viraptor 1y agoGiven how few generally usable browsers (3 with different skins) there are and how huge they are with basically required company backing for many employees... How is that a trope?
