From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I mean the title should be "... time to move to the other browser".
Safari is the new IE with extra iCrap on top.
Random browsers usually use one of the 3 web engines, but without browser polish, or functionalities like a working adblock. Those that don't are just someone's toys.
So the only real option is Firefox, and the Mozilla foundation lost 80+% of their funding because they can't get the Google money anymore. Maybe they'll start actually funding FF instead of some BS humanitarian work that I can bet was primarily lining their pockets...
I wish Apple would open source Safari, or at least make some "Sarafium" others can build on. Would be an instant third player without all the growing pains.
I said they're the new IE for a reason.
The w3c standard: ok so we all agreed that this feature will be placed in the body tag
Blink: ofc, that's what I've been telling you
Gecko: sure, idc
WebKit: yeah nah, put it in the html
So many little senseless gotchas like that that exist for no reason that to be iSpecial
