I don’t know if it’ll go anywhere and I don’t think it wise to attach the various freedom and privacy hopes and dreams to it that some people do but Ladybird is an important project to show people you can actually still make a browser from scratch.
goku12•5mo ago
It'll probably end up showing how difficult and resource-consuming it is to build a browser from scratch. However, the solution for that problem isn't on the implementation side at all. It's the uncontrolled (and possibly intentional) scope creep of the web standards that led to this unflattering situation. The solution must address that.
tomkarho•5mo ago
I remember an X post from week or two back on how apparently some kind of a "hack" was required to make LB work with google docs. The last 10% (which takes 90% of the time) is probably going to be full of those instead of just implementing the spec as one might naively assume. LB can't sadly just ignore those requirements either. Not without significant grassroots movement around it as support. And the punchline is that the scope creep is ongoing so LB is playing major game of catch up.
eska•5mo ago
In a talk they said they send bug reports for the specs.
net01•5mo ago
There are many bugs/errors in the spec. LB is here to find most of them.
