"stagnation of web browser tech": why do you think Blink became a thing in the first place? Also: Progressive Web Apps and Web Components are not fully there yet on Safari (WebUSB, WebMIDI, etc...Look it up). It is not in their interest to move App developers to the web and AFAIK, they didn't start moving again until too many made fun of them, calling Safari the new IE6.
- om2 10y agoSafari has one of the best Web Components implementations, with excellent Shadow DOM and Custom Elements compliant to the latest spec in the Safari 10.1 beta. These are the two most essential Web Components specs. By comparison, Edge doesn't have either, and Firefox has no Shadow DOM and old out-of-spec Custom Elements. How is it that Safari is holding the web back in this area? (WebUSB and WebMIDI have nothing to do with Web Components, they are hardware-specific device APIs.)
