- est31 3y agoI am aware, but note that Safari relies on ImageIO for image decoding and AVFoundation for video decoding, two components of the proprietary OS. Chrome and Firefox on the other hand ship a lot of their own decoders. Those parts are not open source (nor is the GUI, while Chrome is open source also from the GUI point of view, it's really just a bunch of google-custom modifications/extensions that are closed).
