AI is supposed to automate away software engineering, and yet I feel busier than ever. 🤔

Service @service1.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
We have finally bought a official domain at: serv1ce.co The ringtail project will soon be added in ringtail.serv1ce.co We are planning on buying .org too, and then slowly but surely buy the actuall Service.com domain, the small issue is its 50k usd, so until later we will be using serv1ce.co
serv1ce.co
Service Search

CSS Grid is now enabled by default in Servo 🎉 One of the most powerful web layout systems is now available in an independent Rust web engine. It's powered by the library Taffy & enabled thanks to Nico Burns. A huge milestone for CSS layout in Servo!

Greetings! We experimented with Service, a new privacy-focused search engine for Rust devs! It’s a side project; support is appreciated. It features 2 side a-ads to keep the site running. Try it out! serv1ce.pages.dev Kind regards, the Ringtail Foundation #rust #browser #servo

We have added a part of the peanut protocol (developed by spinning cube) where we do peanut://settings, to access the data of the browser! Next step would be.. Adding a own domain only accessible to our browser, and how would we find them? spinning cube wont stop amaze us, he made a search engine!

We got one more developer for the ringtail project! Spinning cube or azure devs, have became a core maintainer, thanks for the amazing work and boost for our discord server!

Every ad on the web gets replaced by Rap — our raccoon mascot. But Rap does more than replace ads. Rap reacts to your privacy score. Happy on clean sites. Concerned on tracker-heavy ones. Privacy shouldn't be boring.

But here's where it gets interesting. RingTail ships with its own network layer called .peanut minecraft.peanut yourcoolsite.peanut Only RingTail users can access it. Everyone gets 5 free domains. Registered via @ ringtail.peanut account. A web within the web

RingTail's privacy stack goes beyond Firefox: → DNS over HTTPS, always on → CNAME cloaking detection → Full storage partitioning → Canvas/audio/WebGL fingerprint blocking → WebRTC leak prevention → Forced HTTPS everywhere Not settings. Defaults.

Why does Rust matter for a browser? Chrome has had hundreds of CVEs from memory bugs. Buffer overflows. Use-after-free exploits. Rust makes these entire attack classes structurally impossible. RingTail isn't just more private. It's safer at the foundation level
