I learned about this project from Theo (T3 guy), and his approval of it, make of that what you will.

Not 100% related but I found it funny that on that specific video, in which he spends the best part of 40 minutes talking about how the only browsers that are worth talking about are ones which "improve" your browsing experience beyond Chrome, which is the de facto "decent" browser. He mentions Zen and Vivaldi as examples.

He then finishes the video gushing about how he loves helium, which is just ungoogled-chromium lol

a) He has a “I use the web in a very niche way that nobody cares about an your browser sucks if it doesn’t meet those exact needs” way of thinking

b) He is an investor in helium
