Hello friends! I’m really happy to have Shopify putting their faith in our little project like this :) If you’d like a quick intro to the Ladybird project, I presented it at a conference earlier this month: https://youtu.be/De8N1zrQwRs Huge thanks to Mike, Tobi and the other folks at Shopify who hooked this up. <3
I'm very happy Shopify is doing this, but at the same time I'm mildly confused by the rationale. Is it literally just goodwill, or does Shopify stand to have other potential advantages out of this? Either way, cool.
Shopify is also sponsoring an eSports team, Shopify Rebellion https://shopifyrebellion.gg>, and partnering with ESL to help sponsor StarCraft II events. I think it's a much nicer way of getting publicity than dumping cash on adwords.

https://www.youtube.com/@awesomekling/search?query=shopify Maybe this is one of the reason? It will be awesome if Ladybird can render Shopify perfectly, not to mention all the free exposure.
What is that link showing? Is he using Shopify as a random website to test his browser against or something? If that's it, that's so hilarious wholesome to end up getting sponsored by them I love it.
Like it was stated in one of the video, Shopify uses a lot of modern cutting-edge web technologies, so display the site correctly is quite the challenge. You should watch some of his videos if you have free time, it is a pleasant surprise of what Ladybird can do after just some dozen months of development.

I love the project and want to contribute somehow, but have limited time. What would be most helpful?
Good bug reports & reduced test cases are always amazingly valuable. Perhaps you have a home page of your own? You can open it in Ladybird and see if you hit some problems. Maybe we throw a surprising JavaScript exception. Maybe our CSS layout isn't quite right.
If you can then reduce the problem to a minimal HTML/CSS/JS example, that's often enough for someone working on the engine to go ahead and find a fix pretty easily. :)
We seriously need a good open source browser alternative. Great to see competition here. I would love to see a browser built for developers with new paradigms for Dev Tools. Of course, the challenge will be parity in terms of rendering and performance with the current incumbents.
I don't know... I'm probably a Firefox fanboy, but all this fragmentation in the market of browsers that are not named Chrome isn't doing us much good in beating Chrome. I'm interested in Chrome being beaten, and it still seems Firefox has the best cards (though I don't know _how_). Once there's healthy competition in browser land, let's reconsider fragmenting it ;-)
They're ostensibly kept on a leash, permitted to exist because it's convenient for Google to have token competition from an anti-trust perspective, but it's sure as hell not real competition.

My question is: can we get a Yak Shavers playlist on YouTube, where all SerenityOS development is gathered in one place? We have so much to learn from you people.

It's sort of hard to take Firefox serious as a competitor to Chrome when their main source of income seems to be Google. They're ostensibly kept on a leash, permitted to exist because it's convenient for Google to have token competition from an anti-trust perspective, but it's sure as hell not real competition.
Which is exactly why I don't understand that not more organisations sponsor Mozilla.
