Native support for keychain + fingerprint
Not sure if they fixed this in Big Sur, but since Mavericks all the way through Catalina there's been a critical bug with Safari's use of the macOS keychain, such that if you don't use iCloud Keychain, then you cannot migrate your Local Items keychain (the one used by Safari) to another machine, even during a restore from a backup. Hence a loss, damage, or theft of your machine means the loss of all passwords saved by Safari.
I posted about it here recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24626562 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24626562
I switched to Firefox for this reason. I can't afford to lose all my passwords.
