Like Gemini, only without the "minimal" and "non-commercial hobbyist" parts.
Without trying to follow Google/MS/etc on the path intentionally chosen to not be passable for others.
That would be excellent, but trying to convince everybody to move to a "new web" would be extremely difficult in itself, even before we start to think about the likes of Google that very much want to maintain the status quo
