Anyone else excited for servo-based browsers?

The project is based in Belgian, it would be the first European browser engine.

I'm happy for any rendering engine that's not Chromium-based.

Fuck Google.

Haven't heard about Servo for years. Wasn't it a Mozilla project that got abandoned? I might be wrong.

It was picked up by linux foundation europe

Excited yes, but realistically we will be lucky if it's usable within 5 years.

A choice in browsers is good. We need to stop CF blocking browsers which are not based on chromium while we're at it.

This is the point in Servo in which we dance

I am very excited but mostly just from the aggressive paralization

Interesting, didn't know about Servo. Is it used by any browser or other program?

I believe only the official servo browser is available due to the early days.

Yes it can be used by Tauri so there could be a few Tauri apps using it because of their highly specific needs
