The project management may have some obvious problems (jOin dIsc0Rd sErVEr; w0rD "thEy" t0o p0liTicAl). But we really need an alternative to browsers funded by Google (Chrome and Firefox).

So I'll do my best to actually build from sources and see what can I help with. Attacking the author is helping nobody.

And for the folks who are saying "wHy n0t rUst", you can always show me the (rust) code.

I really wish they would publish flatpaks because I can't be arsed to either build the thing or get a non-standard precompiled binary to run on nixos.

Well, thank you for pointing me to this project. Didn't know about it. I've just built it. So, the part of I'll do my best to see what can I help with applies here to.
