I used Safari as my primary browser for about a year, mainly because it was easier on the battery. I gave up on it because:
1. I kept running into Safari-only issues on websites. The most memorable one was on the American Express website. I couldn't switch between cards because the selection widget was broken on Safari.
2. The marketplace for Safari extensions is anemic, a problem which is only going to get worse[1] as legacy extensions are about to be totally deprecated[2]. Firefox did the same thing, but at least they moved to the WebExtension API. Safari App Extensions are very limited in what they can do.
3. Safari's developer tools were not as good as Chrome's or Firefox's.
