Not really from the grounds up as it uses WebKit.
Used it very shorty on a mac, but as it really is very similar to safari there is little to no reason to use it.
On a linux maybe, but i think i will stay on firefox until servo is usable. (Which is actually being made from the grounds up)
Servo was developed by Mozilla between 2012 and 2020. In 2020 they layed off the people who were working on it and transferred to the Linux foundation. Servo was partially integrated into gecko as part of the Quantum project.
Servo has been picked back up by a community of devs outside of Mozilla (currently housed in the Linux Foundation Europe) and has been gaining momentum since 2023, to the point it seems to be moving faster now than when Mozilla was funding it.
