What? Safari is substantially less common than Chrome. I'm confused.
- badgar 14y agoYou are responding to a stray Apple fanboy who spelled "come on" as "common." I recommend disengaging.

- sliverstorm 14y agoCommonly used by uneducated teens and young adults So you're trying to sound uneducated?
- suyash 14y agoNo, because it's another way to talk in social media. Now, let's not get into the semantics, we all know how much correct grammar is used in social media/web.
- sliverstorm 14y agoHN is not Facebook. Hold yourself to a higher standard.
- ricardobeat 14y agoSo it's a spelling mistake. Who would've guessed?
- suyash 14y agoI'm trying to express my anger and joy at the same time. Just like how chromium has abandoned webkit, it's Webkit's time to return the favor, get it?
- bdcravens 14y agoNot everything is pit-for-pat, juvenile disputes. Occasionally you'll find grown up professionals with valid technical or business reasons for the decisions they make.
- Samuel_Michon 14y ago“Safari is substantially less common than Chrome.” Last I checked, Safari has 544 million users, whereas Chrome has 260 million users. (There are about 1.4 billion personal computers. Chrome is on 16.45% (230 million) of those computers, Safari is on 5.31% (74 million) of those computers. There are about 30 million Android devices with Chrome. There are 470 million iOS devices with Safari.) Given how fast the mobile market is growing (while the Windows PC market is shrinking), and given that many Android devices are sold with other browsers than Chrome, I'd say the gap is only going to get wider.
