Oh, no, why do alternative web browser engine devs love Discord so much? The Ladybird project also does this… that's certainly a barrier to entry for would be contributors attached to free software and software freedom… It's a shame, I suspect the intersection between people like this and people interested in alternative web browser engines is not small (comparatively speaking)…
Anyway, it's nice to see alternative web browser engines appearing like this. We need browser tech that does not rely on Big Ad funding. Even better if they cooperate on some common libraries like this.
Thanks for working on such things.
Web browser engines have always interested me, I might one day jump in.
Ironically the rationale for using Discord is that people are more likely to join it! It may be a case that this depend on the community one is targeting. Discord is popular among Rust developers, but perhaps less so among browser developers. If Zulip is more acceptable to you, then I also hang out in the Linebender Zulip [0]
