Announcing the Ladybird Browser Initiative

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I feel like the internet is such a lost cause at this point that it would be better to invest in other efforts like the Gemini protocol.
IDK, but I don't think that the problem is that any particular application protocol is bad so much as it is capitalists going to capitalist, and they've shit all over everything in the Quest to Make a Buck.
It's not like a new protocol, if it becomes as widely adopted, won't see the same vultures swoop in and strip mine any value they can find there, too.
A more lightweight protocol limits the attack surface for capitalism. The web sucks because basically anything can be wrapped in http, including ads, tracking cookies, data collection JavaScript, etc.
Gemini protocol only carries markdown
How would you drive the adoption of such a protocol in an environment that is largely hostile towards attempts at demonetising things?
