I just can't imagine how much of a work writing a freaking web engine from scratch is. Massive respect to all the devs working on Servo. Hope it release pretty soon.

Huh wow this has been going for a decade, uses Rust, and is run by the Linux Foundation now? That's all very hype - seems like they need another couple years, but there is hope! I'm impressed

It was the project that helped develop rust into what it is today.

We need to go back to the early web, we need to have a more useful than fancy web. Have a lot of browser to choose from, pages will load faster, be more lightweight and less trackers. I'm talking of a web with less JS...
