    Why is Swift bad?

    Also, I noticed the project has taken donations from mostly non-foss companies. Let’s hope they stand by their principles

      Welp, I haven’t seen anyone learn Swift other than for Apple stuff these days. So I wonder how many can actually contribute to the code. It’s also made by Apple, so yeah. It would have been more performant and secure (both of which are pretty important in a browser) if it was written in a more low level language. For example Rust.
