Ladybird on Debian Stable

| debian | web | ladybird |

I’m so excited about the Ladybird browser. The dream of a fully free web browser that is not tied to any commercial interests or funded by ads inspires me. I hope to contribute to this project as much as I can.

I was able to get Ladybird compiled on Debian Stable in a VM, it works! It’s really special to see something that I think is going to make the web a better place this early in its life.

Here’s a few screenshots for your enjoyment:

Birding photos from Dutch Gap on Aug 15, 2026

Birding photos from Dutch Gap on Aug 15, 2026 My best bird photo from this morning is a dragonfly (Eastern Pondhawk, I think). Least Sandpiper Green Heron Red-headed Woodpecker. It's a juvenile, so its head is not actually red yet.
