I'm reading HN on my laptop outside, and a ladybug landed on my screen right as I was reading this comment. It's sitting there as I write this. I know this doesn't contribute to the discussion in any way but it's so neat I just needed to share.

> it is

You must be meaning "will be". Because the first alpha release is promised some time in 2026. So hopefully by 2028 it will be solid enough.

Is this usable day to day yet? I built it a few months ago and there were showstopper bugs on any nontrivial website.

Exciting project nonetheless.

I know it's very shallow but the marketing page gives me the ick. I have been Pavlov'd that websites with such designs are scams/vaporware.

And we can at least donate directly to Ladybird's development [0]

Unlike Mozilla which Firefox is completely funded with Google's money.
