Working on replacing the crappy content blocker in @ladybirdbrowser with adblock-rust from @brave and the results are excellent! We'll ship with blocking off by default. You opt in and pick your own filter lists. We think that choice is yours, not ours :)

domenic.me/streams-standa… from @domenic. “A response to James Snell's "We deserve a better streams API for JavaScript", and a reflection on what it means to develop and implement web standards.” Worth taking the time to read in full.

World's first memory safe X post. WebKitGTK compiled with Fil-C++ sitting on top of a 100% Fil-C/Fil-C++ userland It's still very slow and unreliable, but it's a full featured web browser, including a memory safe (JITless) JS impl

justhtml: A pure-Python 100% spec-conforming HTML(5) parser, with zero dependencies. From @EmilStenstrom. Relatively fast, and returns plain Python objects (a set of nested objects you can iterate over), not lxml/etree trees (so, no new API to learn). github.com/EmilStenstrom/…

We are proud to share that Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird at the Platinum level ($100,000)! It means a lot that a big player like Cloudflare is supporting a small team like ours in building an independent browser for the open web! We're super grateful! 🧡☁️

A better internet depends on a diverse ecosystem. Today, we're proud to announce our support for @ladybirdbrowser (a completely independent browser built from scratch) and @OmarchyLinux (making Linux more approachable for devs). Super excited to see what the community builds!

“Copy Link to Highlight” / scroll-to-text-fragment (creating deep links to arbitrary text/ranges in a web page without hardcoded IDs) is now also experimentally supported in the stable version of Firefox — when you set dom.text_fragments.create_text_fragment.enabled to true

Firefox Developer Edition supports scroll to text fragment (i.e. #:~:text= links—developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web…) and also creating such links, but only if you set dom.text_fragments.create_text_fragment.enabled to true (bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?i…)

meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/… “So it’s already been decided and we just have to bend over and take the changes our Googlish overlords have decreed!” many people shouted … but that’s not what’s happening here.

Use XSLT3 in frontend JavaScript code in any browser: saxonica.com/html/saxonjs/i…. SaxonJS is “high-performance” JS library you can use right now in any web doc/app where you want to do client-side XSLT3 transformations. And stop whining about lack of native XSLT support in browsers.

My ahead-of-time JS engine Porffor eliminates JS cold starts on AWS Lambda. 12x faster and 2x cheaper than managed Node. Still very early but these results should speak for themselves :) Blog with details below.

I got Porffor serving on real AWS Lambda and this was my genuine reaction on seeing the stats. blog soon(tm)

Chrome is moving away from LevelDB toward SQLite for all backend storage (for IndexedDB too). docs.google.com/document/d/1jW… says why: LevelDB is no longer being actively maintained (& was always expensive to maintain); SQLite is actively maintained & much better fit in practice anyway

“Can we use Wasmtime to build web script engine?” wusyong.github.io/posts/wasmtime… from @Yu_Wei_Wu explores the idea of using the (Rust-based) wasmtime github.com/bytecodeallian… WebAssembly runtime as the basis for a JavaScript engine (alternative to @SpiderMonkeyJS) for @ServoDev

This one is such a key insight from @awesomekling. If you hire many engineers, you (typically) get many lines of code. The result is a vast code base that is costly to maintain further.

First instance of a YouTube video playing in @ladybirdbrowser! And with sound, too! 🤯🐞 This is with MediaSource disabled, so it's using the 360p h.264 MP4 fallback. Props to @Lubrsi who just got this working tonight!

There's lots of data about the usage of web constantly declining, replaced by time on closed platforms (FB, Insta, TikTok) and apps. I think it's true. What are "only the web can do this" experiences you've seen? I want to create as a big a list as possible This comes to mind: ciechanow.ski/moon/

Thanks to @devgianlu and many others, @ladybirdbrowser now passes 99.6% of the WebCryptoAPI WPT tests - the highest score of any browser! This API can be used for encryption and decryption, key generation, signature verification and other useful security features.
