Exiting news for the lady bird browser. https://ladybird.org/
TL;DR: The Ladybird browser, which was written from scratch and aims to be an alternative to corporate-backed browser, now has a non-profit organisation behind it. Also, it got additional funding of 1 million dollars. The end.
We are targeting a first Alpha release for early adopters in 2026.
I will watch this from afar with great interest.
#1 sponsor is Shopify, how does that affect the indepentness?
Ah, the famed non-profit Shopify.
Ladybird is extremely amazing project. Andreas is a good person, with great community around him. The only thing I didn’t like is the new logo - it is very meta-ish. Looks very corporative, and doesn’t really resemble browser :(
