I think Servo is a better option, it's also being written in rust.

So long as it survives rusts complexity and lack of portability. I'm always down for more options!

rust is complex and non-portable?

i've never heard of this, do you mind explaining what you mean better?

You joking? ๐Ÿ˜† I don't want to discourage you from giving rust a try but come on. Have you ever talked to a developer that spent any real time with rust, anyone that got as far as multi threading?

Wasn't Firefox supposed to incorporate Servo in some way or another before Quantum was developed?

I think the Quantum release was what integrated some major components of the servo project.

Looks really cool. I hope we don't have the overreliance on one rendering engine in the future. Once one or the other comes out I'll definitely try it out.
