    Why is WebKit so bad?
  • aucisson_masque 10mo ago
    I found WebKit to be very power efficient and it shows website just as other browser. What’s the issue ?

      To some extent, Chrome* is the new IE. Not in that it's as shitty as IE ever was. But it's the dominant browser engine and folks are neglecting to test on other browser engines altogether as a result. They see "Works on Chrome" and move on to other things. I still encounter websites with rendering or performance issues on Firefox that Chrome based browsers don't have. * I meant Chrome not webkit.

        You're thinking of Blink, which was forked from WebKit years ago. WebKit is the one maintained by Apple and used in Safari. Using WebKit makes this one of very few desktop browsers that aren't based on Blink (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, etc)

        That is Blink, not Webkit. Both have diverged significantly enough over the last fifteen-odd years to be counted as separate engines, even if one is a fork of the other. I primarily use Safari — same story here as with you and Firefox.
