If this ends up failing we are literally gonna end up having Google monopoly on the internet.

The guys at Mozilla are one of the worst people that are handling the only realistic alternative to chromium right now. It will not hold on for another 5 years and its already crumblign.

Firefox just works.
Also you are forgetting about
Servo, it still exists. Supported by the Linux foundation.

browser project ran by the guy who made serenityOS, Andreas Kling. Alpha release in 2026.
>>
>>107077190
And it won't be based on Chromium?
>>
>>107077198
it follows the idea of serenityOS where they dont reuse code and they are making it from scratch albeit using libraries like ffmpeg etc. when its necessary

This thing will die without extension support.

Or just not suck any dick you faggot, servo is managed by the linux foundation and using a software form someone you don't like doesn't mean endorsement unless you are that fucking retarded, by that logic you are a google shill.
>>
>>107077230
>This thing will die without extension support.
You don't know that. It could become something good but it can also fail it's too early to even talk about scenarios.
>>
>>107077255
>You don't know that.
Do you mean he doesn't know it will die without extensions? Or he doesn't know that it won't have extensions? If they've confirmed no extension support "ever" then I'm inclined to agree with that anon. If it's just a far-in-the-future-but-certainly-in-the-plans thing, then yeah, I can understand giving them time.

Permissive licenses are honeypots for corpos

>>107077067
Change the logo.
>>
>>107079317
where they can't steal they'll just replicate
permissive makes it easier for them but it's not like a different license would prevent them from doing what they want
>>
>>107077964
Apart from the actual rendering and scripting that they're doing themselves then I think these are just libraries for another library. I'm pretty sure they do use Ffmpeg, for example, but if you ever look at say Firefox's code they still have their own media libraries used internally that in link against a vendored Ffmpeg.

This is just a normal and clean way for them to structure the code.
>>
>>107079417
I also doubt they'll be writing their own Cryptography libraries either because that is retarded. They must surely be using OpenSSL or similar, no?

Or just because Firefox has NSS (which is maybe on the way out) they are going to do this themselves too?

I don't know what happened to Mozilla/Firefox but they started pushing ads on Twitch streams, looks like they are finally trying, and Twitch is a good way. Remember how Discord got so famous? Yes it all started on Twitch
>>
>>107077964
So you just want a new UI (i.e. chrome) over an existing engine? There are a million firefox and chrome reskins out there. There are even all sorts of webkit browsers. What do you think these guys might have for you that any one of those don't?

Last year a Ladybird developer said:
>No plans, other than "we want extensions eventually". There's a very rough WebExtensions spec, I believe based on how the other browsers' extensions work, which I assume we'll follow. But the focus for now is just on making the browser run the web well.

>>107079425
They used to have their own crypto libraries from serenity, but I think they switched to openssl after the fork
My understanding of their flavour of NIH is "anything specified as a web spec from scratch".
>>
>>107081619
I'm just saying they should focus solely on the LibWeb component. Having a rendering engine be even comparable to chrome is a monumental task in itself.
>>
There is also servo and orion bringing webkit to linux.
>>
>>107077067
My nigger even an established brand like Firefox is completely irrelevant and no longer targeted or tested on by a vast number of websites. Chrome has won years ago and nothing will ever change that.

>>KDE creates KHTML
>>Apple steals it
if you read its actual history, you'll see that apple had an internal version with mac specific patches and features and that they contributed fixes and features back to khtml all the time, so much that they started to create some friction with other khtml devs that disliked applying patches from apple all the time and (idk how true this is and not just some excuse) "how" they structured their patches, so on common accord apple made their own fork called webkit (reorganizing the codebase, cleaning up some legacy code) and left the khtml devs alone. I believe even then they still traded some patches and khtml devs themselves also contributed to webkit

>>107089226
There's a reason writing a browser is considered to be a monumental task. You have 30+ years of standards, and probably 90% of what's used today is recently (i.e. last 20 years) standardized bloat steered by megacorporations with armies of jeets doing everything possible to make it untenable for new competition to even think about starting anything. I think putting something new together from scratch in 10 years would be commendable.

exactly, when was the last time they did some marketing for firefox, either I don't remember anymore or I just missed it.
>>
>>107089188
what the hell? they should support a real distro and not a shit install script
>>
Why would ladybird fail?
>>
>>107089188
not really flattering for ladybird to be compared to an arch install script

Reminder that trannies HATE Ladybird because the developers told them to fuck off and use master instead of main.

No wonder they are trying to redirect you towards some Rust troonfest.
>>
>>107090319
Building a browser from scratch is really hard. It's arguably harder than building a kernel.
>>
>>107090838
Trannies hate ladybird because Andreas Kling is a literal nazi fuhrer to them. Which makes him based as fuck.
>>
>>107077067
Based but man couldn't they have picked a better name
>>
>>107090319
for any number of reasons?

Why does that design below the name remind me of Meta Facebook (Zuckerberg)???
>>
>>107091647
There's about a 50/50 it gets rebranded before launch. However if Ladybird starts generating normie buzz, it likely won't.
