1) Yes, I know, that's how long Firefox has been going down the wrong path, performance-wise. They've only recently seemed to kinda start addressing that ("now we're as good as Chrome, finally!" OK but Chrome is also bad, so....)
2) I'd prefer software just, you know, not be bad. Safari, for all its problems, demonstrates that there's nothing inherent in a modern desktop web browser that requires it to be grossly inconsiderate of your system resources.
- speedgoose 6y agoI understand your points but please don't argue for good software and use Safari as a good example. Safari is the new internet explorer, it requires its own workarounds, it doesn't support some standards because Apple doesn't want it, and you must buy a Mac to debug it.
- badsectoracula 6y agoThe context was how good Safari is for end users when it comes to resource use, not how good Safari is for developers when it comes to developing for it. These two aren't very related and developers tend to view things HEAVILY biased through their own experience as developers (which is why Electron is so popular).
