"that’s the only way I can convince the public to switch."

It is not ready, to be a public browser.

It's already too hard to convince public to switch from chrome to another chromium browser or firefox and you're talking about switching to browser that is at least several years away from feature parity

They want to be able to run more websites well before they invite the unwashed masses from windows XD

I don’t disagree :)

Maybe Ladybird can be a good reason to convince the "public" to switch away from Windows in the near future

That would be a great day. Unfortunately the culture of Linux is still too much walled garden, not in the Apple-like commercial sense, but in the tech culture kind of way. We need a way to embrace the public without losing what makes Linux great (to hack it to your own specifications)

I mean for a long while even the GNU project provided Windows builds for Icecat browser. Probably to much Stallman grumbling.

EDIT : Actually they still update it. Last version is 115.

First time I hear about Icecat browser. It seems like something that should be much more known!

Because of the whole culture of GNU/FSF/Stallman, it can be a little funky at times. It has been a while but I think it still comes bundled with LibreJS, an addon that checks every Java script for Libre licensing. And yes it can be disabled.

I get it and I like the idea but it does make for a difficult up front experience.

it would be very silly for them to add windows support
