Is this closed or open source? I couldn’t find a public repo anywhere in the links
I wonder if they've pushed any fixes or bug reports upstream.
So it won't be for me but nevertheless more competition in the rendering engine area is welcome.
Whether this is a good or a bad thing depends on how it plays out. If software like Flow conforms to standards and offers a better experience, battery life, privacy, etc then it might work out well. An open infrastructure with a marketplace to pay for desired features will benefit us all.
The bad scenario is that the web continues to fracture into proprietary components. While a web not dominated by Chrome seems almost unimaginable today, it wasn't that long ago that sites that only worked in Internet Explorer were commonplace. If Flow actually becomes the dominant web browser and Flow-only websites ever become the norm, we'll all be worse off for it. That really is a far off scenario, so for now, having Flow as an extra player on the web is probably a good thing.
So presumably one would license the engine to use in their device or game and integrate that cost on the end product, rather than a user explicitly paying $X to Ekioh.
Needs: FOSS reasonable rendering, runs on Linux (Gentoo), no-bs. It's mostly FF - but they still pack in BS. And I want things like uBO to work.
I keep experiment with Servo and trying to build apps to embed other renderers so already spend time-cash trying to solve "user agent" problem
