yeah I’m glad servo exists, but its far from ready for prime time.
What’s crazy is what a monumental undertaking implementing a web browser is now. Would love to see someone propose a new standard to replace html-css-js but distilled down to a radically simplified essence, dropping the accumulated cruft of decades, applying lessons learned. Ideally would be something that could be implemented by a few devs over months rather than requiring a team of hundreds over a decade.
The Gemini Protocol does a good job at being a minimal alternative, but it’s quite limited in what is capable. It’ll never be adequate for banking or video games.

Social media and reddit alternatives? No problem.
