As a webdev, Safari has taken the place of IE now.

I'm assuming you mean as the thing we use to download FF?

-or is that the joke?

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Safari? Really?

Must be the mobile version.

Safari is the worst because apple apparently refuses to update their browser outside an IOS/macOS update. So stupid.

Safari is a browser not a system app. It should not be affected by system updates at all.

It's the IE effect in more ways than one. Apple makes money from apps, and by having a monopoly on which app store you can use. Therefore it's in their interest to nerf the browser as much as they can get away with it, and why they force third party browsers to use the Safari rendering engine under the hood.

Not for long, at least in the EU.

This is also why PWAs don't work well on iOS. I think they still don't even support notifications.

~~Can you even update Safari separately on iOS?~~

Nevermind, read that as "people refuse" instead of "apple refuse"

Fuck Apple.
