What made open source great, is the fact that if you find a problem, you can patch it. It's what motivated me, anyway. Ladybird is not SQLite, it's under development and very likely will be forever. To me it looks like they are transitioning into a company, where this model makes sense.

What exactly is different now?

So is Sqlite. Last time I checked they are still actively developing Sqlite.

Do you mean you can't just grab a current release and hold on to that? Well it's pre-alpha... That's the point...
