I believe that Ladybird has more funding and better support for the web, but Servo wins in performance. Though, they’re hard to compare directly!
I hope they both persevere, we need more browser engine competition.
servo is written in rust so gotta be better :>>>

He got snippy about someone PRing gender-neutral language, calling it “politically motivated.” His explanation was that they hadn’t sent previous PRs, which seems like a stupid reason to reject that one; some people are better with language than they are at code, so they’re more helpful fixing comments than fixing bugs.
That said, trans people were never mentioned, and the fight for gender-neutral language long predates any significant public awareness of trans people; also, “meltdown” seems like an exaggeration. He was somewhat rude, but not completely unhinged.
Ladybird seems to be C++, I don’t really see a new project written in a language that is that horrible to use attracting a lot of contributors in the long term.

If you’re leaving firefox for ideological reasons you may want to also avoid Ladybird. The dev had a public freakout over the idea that women exist.
At this point I’m going to personally donate to Ladybird because you people have been spreading this bullshit for months
Source?
It looks more like the dev felt the PR being introduced was purely for political reasons, which he disliked. I’m not saying I agree with the dev, but you’ve stated he “had a public freakout over the idea that women exist” and that doesn’t appear to be the case here.
Consider that claims like yours, and the responses to his rejection of the PR, probably only strengthened his belief of the PR’s intent.
