And in turn they cripple the web on their devices so they can’t compete with apps.
- robgibbons 6y agoThis is by far my biggest gripe with Apple. Almost everything else they do can be justified by some mental gymnastics, but their suppression of the web on iOS is something I can't forgive. The size of their user base demands that we don't ignore Safari when developing sites, but they simultaneously refuse to support modern standards. They are literally holding back the web.
- bbatha 6y agoAnd yet many of us prefer safari because of its incredible battery life and low overhead. The safari is the new ie meme is seriously overblown and only affects app developers trying to use the absolutely newest features and is more tied to safaris year long release cadence than actual malice. Not that there arent a few notable exceptions to apis that should have been implemented long ago.
- nwienert 6y agoI actually agree with you, I love Safari and agree the IE comparison is wack. But that doesn't mean they aren't dragging their feet in other areas.
