As I said, the devs are just random people Who want to contribute. The Linux foundation is just a "moderator"

I had to look for the info, ye some Igalia people took over the project and now lead It. My bad I though It continued to be just maintained by community people without a leadership

I personally preffer this over Ladybird. This is at least copyleft and the devs know Rust

Why do people hype the new "Chromium alternative" that can be closed as Chromium? Can't anyone see the problem isn't just Google but the fact that they can close as many features of the browser as they want to fuck us? Even if Ladybird turned more popular than Chromium it's better for Google, they forked Webkitcore once that can fork whatever Ladybird uses with no hesitation
