Chromium

There really needs to be a "Linux" of browser engines.

Keep an eye on https://servo.org/

Can someone who is more knowledgeable about these things explain why I should be hyped for Servo?

Is that not what Chromium is? An open source browser that anyone can adapt to suit their needs.

People are worried that Google controls the project. Anyone using Chromium is basically copying Chrome but with extra features.

Well, if you're on linux, there's gnome web, but, It's not very good

I'd argue that's what Gecko is tbh
