And it's not only about the product itself.

WebKit bug reports are ignored, for years.

So are Chromium bug reports.

Here's my personal pet peeve. 4 years ago, Chrome broke the ability to open pages in the background on Mac.

People complained, and so Google locked the bug report for comments.

I agree that's bad but at least something happened.

I've reported bugs to WebKit and got absolutely nothing.

Here's one from 2020 which is still open:
