I feel you, I'm a macOS user, and I love using Safari, but for Linux users/developers , not being able to test their web apps in Safari, just because they don't have access to a Mac, is ridiculous. If I were in that position, I would not support Safari, until I can afford a Mac, or just throw a warning banner in my site for Safari users.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it but did you just feign empathy on linux developers and casually leave out the biggest developer group which happens to use Windows?

  The guidelines ask you to respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of a comment ( https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html ). Raising the point that Linux developers can’t validate their front end code on Safari from their standard workstation doesn’t imply that Linux developers are the only affected group.
