I’ve been using Safari full time for a week. I’m not switching back. Here’s my experience so far 🧵

First, I love compact mode. Vertical space is king on laptops, and this navbar feels way more open. Plus, the smart use of theme color makes the page blend into the UI nicely 👍

Performance: Anecdotally, I’ve found Safari is smoother rendering HTML and CSS, while Chrome excels with JS-heavy tasks. Makes Safari the king for content reading.

this is because they prioritise the user not the developer, they focus on implementing new APIs properly rather than rushing (meaning we get things like Service Worker late, but implemented in a way that's better for users and security)

Oh that must be why they don't plan on implementing webusb/webserial. Great for users to have to switch browsers to use things like the meshtastic webflasher. They love that.
