So I am creating the Nordstjernen web browser. https://nordstjernen.org/

Is this still a worthwhile project? As a research project, to explore different ideas (C programming language, no JIT, developed by AI with one developer), and to provide a choice between multiple html rendering engines in addition to Chrome and Firefox).
