That said, I think those videos are a significant contributor to the project success. I hope they do not go away completely.
In fact, I think the videos are as important a contribution as the project itself. I remember seeing a quote once from a musician that said he was inspired by both the Beatles and The Rolling Stones. The Beatles showed him what a band could be. The Rolling Stones made him feel like he could do it too. I see that in Linux and Serenity. Your videos make me feel like I could solve any problem by just starting it and breaking it down into smaller, more solvable chunks. They are inspiration and I am not surprised SerenityOS has attracted people to contribute other ambitious aspects. The PDF browser, the GPU stack, and the RISC ports are examples of amazing projects in their own right. I think one of the reasons we see such ambitious contributions in such a young project is the inspiration provided by your leadership and the example set in those videos.
Regardless, thank you for the contribution so far. With the recent improvements to HTMLInputElement, I was able to use Ladybird to leave a comment on the OSnews site recently and it gave me a huge thrill.
