I've been hearing talk about this new upcoming independent browser that originated in SerenityOS (Unix based).

Ladybird is a brand-new browser & web engine. Driven by a web standards first approach, Ladybird aims to render the modern web with good performance, stability and security.

From its humble beginnings as an HTML viewer for the SerenityOS hobby operating system project, Ladybird has since grown into a cross-platform browser supporting Linux, macOS, and other Unix-like systems.

Ladybird is currently in heavy development. We are targeting a first Alpha release for early adopters in 2026.

Truly independent

No code from other browsers. We're building a new engine, based on web standards.

Singular focus

We are focused on one thing: the web browser.

No monetization

No "default search deals", crypto tokens, or other forms of user monetization, ever.

It sounds good, but making browser engines from scratch is hard. Look at Konqueror... that still doesn't work correctly on all sites, after how many decades? Note that Webkit was originally based on khtml, Apple used it and Google used it in their Blink engine.

Something to watch for though, it could develop into something good. I already like their philosophy.
