Soft forks i.e. disabling as much as possible is a stopgap that will get harder over time.
Maintaining a hardfork base that ruthlessly cuts out stuff and attempts to hold onto it's own security will take a village I'm not sure we can find (but if we could, things could get incrementally better - maybe?)
Servo has a village, but is on the other side of the functionality gap.
Would you rather spend your hours funding new human written code, or on the elimination of generated garbage?

@sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social One of the servo devs suggested which is a more complete servo bsaed browser than servoshell https://webbeef.org/ It's got some interesting looking p2p demo code in it and I was thinking of trying to compile it and see what its like.

@sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social unfortunately i think "takes a village" needs to be read as "takes serious funding for a number of full-time people", more than servo currently has. especially over time as web sites adopt new platform features
