      Does it need another C++ browser engine though? I don’t see what advantage this will possibly offer over just using Blink or WebKit.

        anything that takes market share away from google and google controlled platforms. As it is, google effectively owns the internet, and that’s too much power for any single company to have.

          Yes but why will it take market share away from Google? I can’t see why anyone would use it. It’s going to be slower, less well supported and not even any more secure.

          Servo at least has potential upsides: better security and performance. But another C++ engine is never going to have either of those.

            Yeah. It’s not my money but I’d rather it go to servo.
