It's the next big hope for a browser engine besides the 3 current ones, powering chrome, firefox and safari
Their github: https://github.com/servo/servo
(there's also Ladybird but Servo is more exciting as the Rust one that used to be supported by Mozilla and now by the Linux Foundation)
Ladybird also has rather questionable politics https://hyperborea.org/reviews/software/ladybird-inclusivity/
Oh, and it has just taken a turn for the worst as well, seeing the latest update in the article
(I.e. it would be ironic if we pushed for it to succeed and it ended up supplanting gecko and Mozilla)
Technically it's already partially in Mozilla Firefox via Firefox Quantum.
Look at that, Servo is already in 6% of browsers
What parts did they include from Servo?
Man, that would be great
