Frankly, I don’t think all that matters. Safari doesn’t keep up with web standards. It’s not like they’re failing to be competitive as with browser features — that’s a different question. As long as a web standard is specified, and Safari doesn’t implement it, it’s not doing their one job as a browser engine.
The pace of change in the frameworks world is completely independent of web and browser features. And the web is very backwards compatible — so new web platform features don’t rot the foundations of any existing web apps, assuming they use specified features.
- hnfong 4y ago> Safari doesn’t keep up with web standards (emphasis yours) Just pause for a moment and think who's proposing these standards. The same groups pushing for browser "featurism" sit on the committees that define these "standards". It's not meaningful to say that they're different things when they're all part of the same effort in different disguises.
