@sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social > I fear we have already lost I tend to think we already have. What's needed is an independent browser not based on Gecko, Blink, or WebKit. I was initially excited about Ladybird, but they turned out to have weird right-wing leanings. So I'm just back to despair (which would be a fun name for a new browser engine...)

@jbowen@mast.hpc.social @sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social There is another independent browser engine in development called “servo” but i have no clue what their position on the political spectrum is or their position on AI is at the moment
