Safari is broken in ways that don't make sense if you don't live in apple land, so I can't bother with their mess for 5 or 6% of the total browser market Moreo

  > Safari is broken in ways that don't make sense if you don't live in apple land Are you equating "apple land" with increased privacy for your users, then disregarding it?

  Can’t believe web developers are willing to write-off over 2 billion Safari/WebKit users: https://appleinsider.com/articles/18/09/12/apple-achieves-mission-impossible-of-reaching-2-billion-ios-device-shipments https://appleinsider.com/articles/18/09/12/apple-achieves-mi... This ain’t your father’s Safari web browser: https://webkit.org/status/#?status=under%20consideration,in%20development,supported%20in%20preview,supported https://webkit.org/status/#?status=under%20consideration,in%... There’s a lot of stuff that’s already supported in the released Safari and lots more stuff in development and being considered.

    most of that 2 billion is concentrated in the US and the wealthier european nation states. places with people who are educated enough to understand "this website works best on chrome" or "this browser is not supported" error messages. it's pretty easy to see where the wind is blowing i'm living in india right now and basic websites like dominoes ordering websites glitch out on safari/iphone prompting me to switch. complaining does nothing,i've had lengthy chats with dominoes support - it's just not a priority. apple is going to pay for ignoring developing markets imo

      This just reinforces the idea that web developers are cowboys.
