We've waited 15 years for Apple to compete fairly. Just when will the right time arrive? When Apple has finished choking the web platform to death?

- dmitriid 4y ago> When Apple has finished choking the web platform to death? What a bullshit statement that has no basis in reality. I wish high-visibility "thought leaders" would stop spewing this bullshit (but they won't) Safari is definitely not choking the web platform to death. It's as lively as ever. What you want is a bunch of Chrome-only non-standards that both Safari and Mozilla vehemently oppose to, and a smattering of other bullshit features under the PWA banner that are coming to the next versions of Safari.
- the_other 4y ago> Just when will the right time arrive? Android and Windows make up four times the number of web users as iOS. That's almost the same ratio (Chrome:others) as browser use across the web. Get a significant proportion of those user to move onto to other browser platforms first, then go after Apple give the final 20% of users more choice.
