Definitely a good thing and definitely (possibly) an improvement.
However Gecko is open source too and, more importantly, the engine won't make a difference on the browser, which could still have all the worst possible features while still using the Servo engine.
Not trying to be a doomer here, I look forward to Servo and its adoption in Firefox.
well the biggest difference is servo being developed under linux foundation which is a non profit organization, that creates a huge difference in its motivation and direction.
I mean yeah they havent done anything wrong "yet" but I am loosing confidence in the company considering the direction they are headed in, like this AI stuff
