Interesting choice of browser. Solipsism. I'm not interested in the webview variant, so I installed their Antares engine which is based on Servo. Tried it a little bit, but the browser keeps crashing with Antares activated. I'll check again when it's more stable.

    I'm also not certain that I love their stance on AI and AI contributions

    AI is the compiler of natural language.

    That's a very worrisome position. If "AI is the compiler" that means the source code is your prompts/chats and the stuff in the repo is just build artifacts.

    I've never heard of Antares, but yeah servo isn't really ready for general use yet. I've never had servoshell just crash, but there's a lot of websites it doesn't display correctly yet.

    Can't wait for the day I can fully switch to a browser using servo.
