Trust in Firefox and Mozilla Is Gone – Let's Talk Alternatives
> I mentioned momentum for a reason, servo doesn't have any. Ladybird however is extremely actively developed.
Looking at https://github.com/servo/servo it's very actively developed and gaining new contributors. The number of contributors for both projects is very similar. They are both active.

Servo – Open Collective
I felt like this link is missing some important context.
History: Initially started by Mozilla in 2012. They laid off the team off in 2020 and transferred the project to the Linux Foundation. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(software)

An Update on Mozilla's Terms of Use for Firefox
At this point, I believe, it's important to accelerate development of Servo[1], which not only provides better browser security because of memory safety (getting rid of the stupid mistakes like OOB access or UAF), but is also managed[2] by Linux Foundation Europe[3], which gives more hope from the privacy standpoint.

Waterfox: Fast and Private Web Browser
I understand that people need alternatives that work now but please consider contributing your developer expertise and/or donating to Ladybird[0] / Servo[1]. We need to get away from our current engine monoculture of Chromium/Gecko (yes I know webkit exists)

Welcome to Ladybird, a independent web browser
Ladybird is lucky in that it has someone who knows how important marketing is, even for opensource projects. There are other opensource browser engine projects languishing because of lack of PR, patronage and / or volunteers. For e.g. NetSurf https://www.netsurf-browser.org/ - website is outdated because of lack of volunteers, but the project has active development - https://source.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/ (already has partial support for CSS3, and Flex layout). Servo (https://servo.org/) is another but it gets some decent PR because of its Rust codebase and the Rust PR team.

Qutebrowser: A keyboard-driven, Vim-like browser
It seems that they moved it since to a bigger meta issue and it's actively being worked on https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/30593.

DOJ Will Push Google to Sell Off Chrome to Break Search Monopoly
https://github.com/servo/servo
Servo is upcoming, but so far it is fantastic in comparison to any other browser out there.
I tend to focus on any software that does not require 12 teams of people 6 weeks to determine how to build a single binary because of the use of 20 different programming languages and mixing and matching of paradigms and solutions to subconponents.
