A lot of people use it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebKit#Installed_base

I mean nobody super exciting, but Steam uses it for their software, Adobe CSS uses some of it, etc.

It's more than an Apple thing.

[Edit]: Sorry, nobody outside Apple uses Safari, but a lot of people outside of Apple use WebKit, Safari's engine.

Steam uses CEF aka *Chromium* Embedded Framework. If the current version is still WebKit then its only because they haven't updated to Blink yet.

It is also primarily there to render Steam and steampowered.com so not very relevant to keeping web standards in check.
