From your comment it seems you don’t truly understand what Servo is. How is it a “hope” for you?

as much as my understanding goes, its a new browser engine which is completely open source, isnt that a good thing?

Definitely a good thing and definitely (possibly) an improvement. However Gecko is open source too and, more importantly, the engine won’t make a difference on the browser, which could still have all the worst possible features while still using the Servo engine. Not trying to be a doomer here, I look forward to Servo and its adoption in Firefox.

well the biggest difference is servo being developed under linux foundation which is a non profit organization, that creates a huge difference in its motivation and direction.

Yes, but it is still only an engine. Also Mozilla hasn’t done anything wrong with Gecko that could make one question its motivation or direction.

All the supposed changes are only about Firefox not Gecko and we haven’t seen anything yet, so what’s the direction they are headed in? Just relax and see what comes instead of losing confidence before anything happens.
