I mean sooner than later Firefox is just going to become shit, librewolf is already the new ungoogled chromium and every other Firefox fork follows Firefox style.

Once the alpha release of #ladybirdbrowser is released this year, I'm out, I don't even care if it has no extensions it is a built from scratch private browser, and that's hard to find nowadays.

#ladybirdbrowser

I got distracted on the #ladybirdbrowser site.

The fact that they had to add other user agent strings to theirs just to see the right versions of websites highlights why User-Agent sniffing is just a crappy, sloppy way to build a website.

You shouldn't see a "Your browser is not supported" message, or worse, an error code. Add enhancements where the browser supports them, but show something useful to all users...

@dazo Unfortunately, there is no alternative (only worse - Google). We are waiting and hoping for the #ladybirdbrowser

Now I am kinda on the fence for the future #ladybirdbrowser

Not much about the Rust bit, its the AI bit that makes me sit on the fence

Ladybird adopts Rust, with help from AI - Ladybird

We're adopting Rust as our C++ successor language, and using AI agents to accelerate the transition.

GG; really was excited for the ladybird browser, but now it relies heavily on AI to rewrite its code from C++ to Rust. They even rewrote their entire JS stack just using AI into rust, using "only" hundrets of prompts to get Claude to do the porting for them.

Can this AI slop bubble please burst already?

Nachdem #LadybirdBrowser sich von #dhh sponsorn ließ, wurde ich skeptisch dem Projekt gegenüber, das an sich so fantastisch anfing. Aber die Story geht weiter. #KI wird zum Portieren des C++ Codes nach #Rust genutzt. Ich geb auf, ich habe kein Interesse mehr an diesem neuen Browser.

🚨BREAKING: Ladybird Browser, that Titanic of the tech world, is now jumping ship from C to Rust with AI's help! 😱 Apparently, they couldn't quite Swift-ly leave Apple behind. But no worries, because Rust is the knight in shining armor that everyone pretends to understand! 🦄
