What is Ladybird?
Ladybird is an open-source web browser currently in development, with an alpha version expected to launch in 2026.
Unlike other browsers, Ladybird is not based on Chromium or Gecko or Blink but on the new independent SerenityOS LibWeb engine with a Qt GUI.
Ladybird originated from the 
SerenityOS project, a UNIX-like operating system, and was later separated to focus on browser development. Its construction is original, adhering to web standards without using existing browser code. While it still uses some libraries from SerenityOS, it has begun integrating third-party libraries. Ladybird operates on a multi-process architecture for enhanced security and stability, with each tab operating on its own sandboxed renderer process.

Comments and Reviews
This is not a Chromium nor a Firefox based web browser. The team is working on this new project from the ground-up, it still could be considered on Alpha but its future looks bright, definitely keep an eye on Ladybird.
The team is working really hard on this project and the results for certain tests are showing something promising, therefore the high rate being given. It's good to finally see some innovation on the works.
I cant wait for this to supplant the gecko engine!
Really now, is there any sense in listing a browser that may have an alpha in two years?
Yes. It makes people aware of it.
