I'd flip it around and say the opposite, myself!
Browser vendors generally seem to be working pretty closely to build a consistent platform. While they've all got their own priorities, as ever, there's lots of collaboration in many areas. We've got cross-platform graphics, WebGL is almost useable, CSS support is good… and so on.
Compared to a few years ago, when we had to build sites that scaled from IE6 all the way to the iPhone, the web is much more uniform and pleasant to work with.
