I believe that Ladybird has more funding and better support for the web, but Servo wins in performance. Though, they're hard to compare directly!

I don't think Ladybird can compete with the other browsers with that speed.

Oh and I still wonder why they chose Swift over all the other compiled languages to this day. Was OOP really that crucial?

I'm waiting for Servo tbh.

Swift is great! The guy who made Rust worked on Swift for 3-ish years, so there's a fair amount of overlap in interest between the two. Those were the two main contenders, and I guess OOP was the deciding factor.

I'm waiting for whichever is ready first.
