They use Rust for app dev already. Pretty sure they know what they are biting off.

Highlights from R560 Beta Release, 560.28.03

• Updated nvidia-installer to select the NVIDIA open GPU kernel modules by default on systems with GPUs that support both the proprietary and open kernel modules.

If you use GNOME, try Boxes.

Not really a desktop option like VirtualBox though.

I have been using VirtualBox modified to use KVM as its backend. It has been great on my 2013 MacBook Air.

They have been migrating to GTK3 since before GTK4 was out.

I am sure they will stay behind but future porting should be easier.

That said, non-GNOME GTK apps seem to be considering sticking with GTK3 anyway ( to avoid libadwaita ).

I think this is the argument that the Ladybird people have made:

• Chrome is dependent on Google ( obviously )
• Edge is dependent on Google ( based on Chromium )
• Firefox is dependent on Google ( 80% of revenue )
• Safari is dependent on Google ( $4 billion from Google )
• most other browsers are dependent on Google ( use Chromium ) - Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, etc

Ladybird is intended to be a truly independent browser and especially independent of Google.

You mean other than KDE ( KWin ) and GNOME ( Mutter )?

Ladybird was originally started as a browser for SerenityOS, a POSIX operating system. Well into the project, they decided to make it cross-platform but that still meant POSIX ( Linux and macOS ). As interest ( and sponsorships ) came in from outside SerenityOS, focus moved more and more to the browser and away from SerenityOS.

Just recently, Ladybird decided to split from SerenityOS, allow more outside code, and in fact has dropped SerenityOS as a supported OS.

The project is fairly pragmatic. I am sure they will add Windows support as the core browser engine matures.

Doesn’t Safari still use WebKit?

It is really just an AntiX spin now

I run Proxmox on a 2103 trashcan. It is awesome.
