Looks like the website of a startup that wants my email so they can "get back to me with a quote". Such soulless corpo design is not befitting of a project this nice.

Something about only being a browser company? Mozilla is many things, but purely browser focused is not it.
I would say the browser it’s not even in their mind at this point. High level people inside Mozilla not only implied but said it directly.
For example: the reddit AMA on firefox unofficial subreddit[1],the mozilla connect post on things they are working on[2]etc.

Hello friends, Ladybird founder here! Here's a short video from Chris Wanstrath announcing our non-profit yesterday, and kicking things off with a $1M donation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9edTqPMX_k Happy to answer questions :)
How does ladybird compare to Servo? https://servo.org/
Servo wants to build an embeddable engine for controlled sets of HTML/CSS/JS content, with a focus on modularity and parallelism.
Ladybird wants to build a usable browser for the open web, warts and all, with a focus on compatibility and correctness.
I'm a big fan of Servo and I hope they become a huge success! Competition and new ideas in browser engines will benefit all of us! :)
Nitpick (or is it?) but the website is soulless and just bad. The website design communicates that this is just another immature project, desperately looking for a VC funding, just following modern design trends where "design == aesthetics". Yuck. I am happy to see the project thrive.
I can imagine how hard it is to develop a browser. However, I can't imagine how much the landscape will change in the next 2 years... LLM, privacy, etc.

What's the pitch for those who currently use firefox?

This is a welcome initiative speaking from a personal and professional perspective, and as CEO of an independent search engine; we are all too well aware of the power of money and defaults. This immediately comes to mind as akin to the Signal vis-a-vis WhatsApp etc. Here there is an obvious reason to use Signal and a well-understood proposition. What might it be for Ladybird? And how will you differentiate?
That said, I do think we'll find ways to differentiate given our uncommon situation with no ties to the advertising industry. This gives us the ability to experiment with privacy measures more aggressive than others may be comfortable with for fear of losing funding, for example.

What is the biggest challenge you expect for ladybird to be successful and do you consider this project still a "hobby" now? Thanks again for your hard work!
We have a number of big challenges in the immediate future, but I think the biggest one of all will be the long tail of compatibility and correctness issues that inevitably awaits us after everything falls into place. This is definitely more than a hobby at this point. I already manage 3 employees, with 3 more joining in the next month!
