What are your thoughts on SerenityOS?

I think it's a really cool project and I can tell the amount of love the devs put into it. Far from daily drive-able—a lot of websites don't display properly for me, and I find their ports system to be a bit of an awkward way to install software. But I love the aesthetics and the idea behind it. I look forward to seeing them develop it more.

I just find Ladybird being as functional as it is a miracle at all. The rate of progress makes me hope Ladybird will one day give Firefox a run for its money in the OSS browser space, but that might be a pipe dream.

Then again, maybe not.

And with their questionable decision on using Swift, that dream even seem less attainable.
