@servo@floss.social launch sponsorship tiers to help fund more rapid development:

https://www.phoronix.com/news/Servo-Sponsorship-Tiers

IMO Servo is still our best chance at a fast, modern alternative to Chrome's Blink renderer taking over the web.

Tiers start at as little as $100, but if you don't have that to spare, consider sharing to try and reach potential sponsors who do!

To anyone trying to follow me - I have a pretty low bar for the follows I authorize. Just:

1. Have some kind of description, even if short and not personally identifying. Just something.

2. Have a couple of posts. Not boosts. Not retooting some image from another social network. Posts with your own actual words.

3. Have an account that isn't on a huge, corporate privacy leech (eg Threads).

4. Be a human.

Other than that, I look forward to chattin' with y'all on the Fedi! ❤❤️

Got a website?

Feel like helping make unauthorized LLM scrapers choke on an infinite sea of garbage, potentially making their models collapse?

...Then take a look at:

PS Do make sure to read the warnings, boost and have fun! 😈😈

Thanks to @dlatchx@fedi.tfnux.org for reminding me where to find this!

Ok, so this is very early stage but cool:

#Verso is a project to build a full "#FOSS forever" web browser based on #Rust and #Servo rather than #Chromium/#Gecko. Even the interface is rendered with Servo.

https://github.com/versotile-org/verso

Currently there's 23 contributors and a non profit forming to oversee it. There are also nightly releases for testing (remember the "very early stage" bit though!).

Here's their initial launch video (tech starts about 1/2 way through):

Screenshot from the Verso webpage. At the top is an image of a text based cat and the word "Verso" with an old CRT effect. Underneath is the following text: "Verso is a web browser built on top of the Servo web engine. We aim to explore embedding solutions for Servo while growing it into a mature browser one day. This means we want to experiment with multi-view and multi-window first and then build UI elements entirely from Servo itself. At the moment, Servoshell should provide a better user experience. Verso is still under development. We don't accept feature requests at the moment, and the whole navigation workflow hasn't been polished yet, either. But if you are interested, feel free to open bug-fix PRs."

If you believe in #privacy and understand the dangers of #Google / #Facebook / #Amazon and #GAFAM #surveillance, then you'll understand the importance of #selfhosting. Currently, #Yunohost is one of - if not THE - best option for new hosters, but they need your help. We all need to help them get easier, faster and even better for everyone. They're doing it with no commercial sponsors, so throw them a sheckle or two if you're able:
https://donate.yunohost.org/

It helps us all.

Please #boost. Thanks.
