> Because for anything beyond basic website Safari is a buggy mess As a person who uses Safari as the main browser, I call bullshit.

  You use it sure, but du you know how much additional money was sirens just to work around problems with safari so that you don't notice a difference? How many web apps where cancelled or has to be fundamentally changed because safari? As a user you tend to not see it as safari is a high profile target and as such devs tend to make sure it works for it.

    As a dev who works on a Mac with Safari, I say none: my co’s app, which is quite complex, “just works” on Safari (what I use), Chrome (what the rest of the team uses), and Edge (what our bigger customers use). Is this because of React? Babel? Webpack? Maybe. All I know is that we happily code away on this complex beast, and everything. Just. Works. Everywhere.

    The original statement was "anything beyond basic website Safari is a buggy mess", not "You use it sure, but du you know how much additional money was sirens just to work around problems". So. As a person who uses Safari as a primary browser, I call bullshit on the first statement. Additionally, as a person who does frontend for a living (21 years and counting, sometimes just frontend, sometimes fullstack), I call bullshit on the second statement.
