Firefox is the only reasonable alternative to the Chrome monopoly right now, yes, but they too are going bad, we need more alternatives
Ladybird isn't ready yet but one to keep an eye on.
unfortunately, its based on c++... so could be a security nightmare unless they are very very careful :|
What do you think chrome and safari are written in?
To my knowledge, the chromium devs have said (and i am paraphrasing here) that maintaining such a large C++ codebase from a security standpoint is a figurative nightmare. I think they have only recently begun to start migrating some code to rust or other languages (i'm not 100% if they were also looking into Zig)
Pivot to suggesting to rewrite it in Rust in 3...2...1...
