It's refreshing that browser engineering seems to become a "trend" now. The ecosystem is quite sparse with basically only Google, Apple and Mozilla defining it. I'd like to see forward into a future with more independent browser engines.

Or perhaps an entirely new platform/protocol, since this one is completely saturated with complexity at this point.

Why not go back to WAP & WML? ;)

There is QML (see https://www.canonic.com) and Gemini (see https://gmi.skyjake.fi/lagrange/) as alternatives.

These are fascinating!
