Update was from 3 days ago, I’m really hopeful ladybird could be a future browser option to help break the stranglehold chrome has over the market, while Mozilla is struggling to find meaningful direction.

It seems like an exciting project with monthly progress updates :) they keep chipping away at compatibility.

    The pro-FOSS stance would be to get your communications off of being exclusively proprietary platforms. Developer & early adopter freedom & privacy matters—but instead they are choosing Discord & Microsoft GitHub as their only platforms.

      True, but I’m not one to let perfect be the enemy of good.

        We can & should demand at least gateways & mirrors if not at least a single alternative. Considering they have funding, they can self-host to actually control a forum or chat room as well as a code mirror (even if just HTTP with no forge). Folks are also undervaluing how some users are banned from access to these US-based platforms under US sanctions.

    I hope they can do it. Mozilla hasn’t fundamentally changed from where they were at least a year ago (re: their inability to clearly communicate policy “changes”), but the fact that they don’t seem to know what concerns their users and how to communicate in a way that doesn’t stoke their fears—it just makes them harder to work with and recommend.

    Hopefully Ladybird can inject some much-needed competition into browsers.
