The thing is, Apple WANTS us all to stop supporting Safari. It doesn’t help them make money to keep maintaining and extending WebKit to compete with the other browsers. Their (shareholders’) goal is to get more app purchases. I think the only realizable solution is something like antitrust litigation or class action lawsuit to allow web browser competition on iOS, allowing Firefox and Chrome to outcompete Safari. Then we can all drop support and give them the middle finger like IE
