this is a bafflingly absurd comparison. ladybird is nowhere near the same scale as mozilla. not only is firefox a fully functional browser, available in multiple platforms, but also creating the browser is only one of the relevant things mozilla does

sadly many of the other relevant things these days are AI slop and ads

If you read the chain, I wasn't comparing. It's possible in a couple years that engines like Ladybird or Servo will take the place of Gecko, at least in part.

Mozilla has no public plan in place to deal with a loss of Google's funding.
