I don't think Ladybird can compete with the other browsers with that speed.
Oh and I still wonder why they chose Swift over all the other compiled languages to this day. Was OOP really that crucial?
I'm waiting for Servo tbh.
The GitHub project seems to be mostly C++ and the Qt comment in the article would support that.
HN crowd told me they're porting to swift. When I asked "why not Rust", they said the C++ code was very OOP, so it was easier to port to swift.
I'm not a dev but does Swift will restrict it to Apple platforms since it is Apple language?
nope
