I thought the entire point of Ladybird was precisely to reinvent the wheel?

This is also the case for Servo, so it makes sense to collaborate.

Servo has a distinct design goal that sets it apart from its predecessor within Mozilla and has already had offsprings that has made its way directly into Firefox.

Its purpose is not to reinvent everything. It’s not a hype project.

Servo's original purpose was to reinvent everything for Firefox to modernize the codebase, and make it secure and more performant (e.g. CSS styling engine, HTML parser, etc.) So it actually fits that purpose pretty well.

Unfortunately licence incompatibility may prevent that. Ladybird is BSD and Servo is MPL. This is also why there is only limited collaboration between Servo and the Rust GUI ecosystem.

Commenting about not reinventing the wheel on a Ladybird post is ironic
