Safari isn't chromium though?
Mac users have enough money and it's close enough to Chrome for businesses to care
Webkit still.
So? Chromium and Chromium based browsers (and V8) use blink nowadays.
Webdevs are all lazy MacOS users and Apple fanboys so Safari gets supported disproportionately
/hj
what is /hj?
/hj is a tone indicator meaning half-joking, some of these are rarely used but this is a good list of them
I see. I only was aware of /jk and /s
Thanks for the list.
/blahåj /s
Yes, like Nia said it stands for Half Joking!
Basically, I was saying Safari gets disproportionately well supported because a lot of web developers macOS, and although I do think this is true in part, it's also partially just a joke.
Simpler said, don't take it too serious, but there is a core of truth in it, for me.
