This is the most surprising and interesting part, imo:

This is quite unusual for Apple, isn't it? WebKit was basically a hostile fork of KHTML, Darwin has been basically been something they throw parts of over the wall every now and then, etc.
I hope this and other projects Apple has recently put up on GitHub see fruitful collaboration from user-developers.
I'm a F/OSS guy at heart who has reluctantly become a daily Mac user due to corporate constraints that preclude Linux. Over the past couple of years, Apple Silicon has convinced me to use an Apple computer as my main laptop at home (nowadays more comparable, Linux-friendly alternatives seem closer now than when I got my personal MacBook, and I'm still excited for them). This kind of thing seems like a positive change that lets me feel less conflicted.
Anyway, success here could perhaps be part of a virtuous cycle of increasing community collaboration in the way Apple engages with open-source. I imagine a lot of developers, like me, would both personally benefit from this and respect Apple for it.
