Nitpick (or is it?) but the website is soulless and just bad. The website design communicates that this is just another immature project, desperately looking for a VC funding, just following modern design trends where "design == aesthetics". Yuck.

I am happy to see the project thrive.

I don't know if that's true for non-developers. (Of course non-developers aren't the target yet, but they hopefully will be in the future.) I'd assume that non-developers are usually the main audience for a project website like this.

Developers can simply look at the Github readme and get their near plain text overview there.

> Nitpick (or is it?)

We're all nitpicking no matter what our thoughts are on the design. I have my own thoughts on the design, but I'm more excited about the product than to put any more care in what the website looks like. It's easy enough to ignore and doesn't have an effect on the product.

This is a textbook definition of bikeshedding though

It is a nitpick, and the website works just fine for conveying what Ladybird is & what the project will be doing: The elevator pitch given was straightforward & at the top of the main page.

The new website is the first time I've felt excitement for Ladybird and I've been following SerenityOS from the inception.

Have to agree, though I think as the saying goes, "don't hate the playa, hate the game". Capitalism sucks. Sorry for my non-HN-like comment, but it's the truth.

That might play if this was another Chromium fork, instead of something built from scratch.

I've been watching Andreas' youtube channel, no need to talk down to me.
