They own the web through Chrome, it’s one of their best investments.

They’re killing Firefox with it (RIP) and successfully killed IE with it (rest in piss).

We’re getting to a desktop browser hegemony again but I doubt a scrappy upstart will be able to save us.

I use Safari for everything except front-end web development on MacOS now. I started because it's more energy efficient but I got quite used to the UX and now I'm glad I switched.

I'm hopeful there are a lot of Mac users like me out there.

For sure, and it’s only Safari that gets a bad reputation

Yep, and folks will keep complaining until it’s just a fork of Chrome.
