However there is a rather weird thing about it: it claims to be using Piped for YouTube but it doesn't get the "Sign in to confirm that you're not a bot" error. I guess it uses a different API when Piped gives an error.

> As a web engine, Servo primarily handles everything around scripting and layout. For embedding use cases, the [Tauri](https://tauri.app/) community experimented with [adding a new Servo backend](https://servo.org/blog/2024/01/19/embedding-update/), but Servo can also be used to build a browser. > > We have a reference browser in the form of [servoshell](https://github.com/servo/servo/tree/main/ports/servoshell), which has historically been used as a minimal example and as a test harness for the [Web Platform Tests](https://wpt.servo.org/). Nevertheless, the Servo community has steadily worked towards making it a browser in its own right, starting with [our new browser UI](https://servo.org/blog/2023/09/15/upcoming-events-and-new-browser-ui/) based on [egui](https://www.egui.rs/) last year. > > This year, [@wusyong](https://github.com/wusyong), a member of [Servo TSC](https://servo.org/governance/), created the [Verso](https://github.com/versotile-org/verso) project as a way to explore the features Servo needs to power a robust web browser. In this post, we’ll explain what we tried to achieve, what we found, and what’s next for building a browser using Servo as a web engine.
