Servo and Ladybird are both nowhere near close to daily drivable (at least for the general public), however Servos been making a ton of progress after their restart and seems much more like an actual chrome competitor then Ladybird. So why do I never see it talked about while Ladybird seems to be the next big topic here?
Keep in mind I do think these are both amazing projects and I really hope they can co-exist
Edit: Looks like the main reasoning is Servo’s focus on being embedded while Ladybird promises a fully functional browser
Yeah, Servo has a massive headstart and from that point, it has a reasonable goal of becoming a lightweight, web-like platform, which you can specifically target when building UIs for embedded devices. That means, it has a use without supporting the entire web.
Ladybird’s goal of becoming a general-purpose browser, on the other hand, is something that Mozilla, Google and Apple continually chase with hundreds of developers and decades of a headstart. Ladybird explicitly does not want to use existing web technologies, so they get no headstart.
In other words, anyone who knows enough about the field will not be talking about Ladybird as something an end user will use. At the very least not in this decade, but potentially never.
