This feels like a filler post. What can we usefully learn about a browser that's over a year away from an alpha release?

I tried two months ago when people were talking about it, and I learned the reason why they said it's going to take years for the first release. Honestly I am pessimistic about the browser situation these days, but best of luck

My first impression was the lead developer calling a PR for gender neutral pronouns in the documentation "personal politics". Pardon me if I'm still underwhelmed, no matter the state of the project.

"first alpha release is expected ~16 months from now"

"First Impression: I was not impressed"

You don't say

Stupid name. Branding will not help this browser.

Yeah, it needs to be called xxxShinybugOfFIREEEEExxx or something because then it would sound like every other browser but with edginess up to 11 /s
