CF aside, I'm not the biggest fan that Ladybird decided on Swift, since it's such an Apple-centric language. Wish they'd sponsored Servo instead.

Servo kinda died when the main people left
Swift is open source (Apache 2) and is a very pleasant language to work with. I would have gone with Rust, personally, but I can’t fault anyone for choosing Swift. It’s a very underrated language.
Ladybird instead of Servo? And then some obscure desktop environment? What the fuck are they even trying to achieve here? We already got some big names and they're betting on the small ones?
Ladybird has been a serious competitor for months, and its ideology is excedingly good and user-oriented, so thats why
Idk why they sponsored Omarchy, but it looks cool, altough I dont see what they'll get from that
Omarchy is a Linux distro.
And I think ladybird is a bit larger of a project than servo, and they can't sponsor every single browser engine.
Ladybird needs to be careful who they accept money from
