I've seen in various threads that the current browser engines aren't good, such as gecko and blink. The question is why? Why do we need a new one, and what's stopping a new one being made? Is it just the fact that they're a lot of work to make?

Yes please. I also love React that Win2k look makes me so happy.

1: I don’t know of any from scratch browsers.

2: I’d be happy to toss a guilder to anyone putting together a serious project

Servo and Ladybird are the two most serious ones right now. Andreas Kling, the lead dev from Ladybird regularly streams his progress and posts about new sites working. It's been pretty cool watching it over the years get better. iirc their current goal is to get discord completely working in browser on Ladybird.

Love React to. I hope one day I can use it in place of Windows.
