It was just last year that Safari introduced extension support at all (at least on the shared webext api set)
Chrome first released them in 2009, version 4 (happened to still be on webkit then, too - so same rendering engine as safari). The space is 13 years old.
And even then... the supported api set is fairly minimal.
Combo that with the xcode lock in and... Apple still gets a solid failing grade from me.
- lapcat 4y ago> It was just last year that Safari introduced extension support at all (at least on the shared webext api set) This is totally false. Safari Mac has had extension support since 2010. Safari has gone through a few different extension formats: safariextz, app extensions, web extensions. But Chrome and Firefox have also gone through a few different extension formats.
