      Safari is the new ie from a developer’s POV. But chrome deliberately ignores some w3c standards, much like ie did back in the days, so some comparison could be made

        I used to follow Jen Simmons because she was always informative about recent developments in future and current CSS features, but now she works as a “Safari evangelist” and only posts about features implemented in Safari, and she can’t really “turn it off”. Always like “Safari was first to implement this and that.” Focus on the feature. I can’t use it because yet it’s not in any other browser than a locked-down one that I can’t access or even test on.

        I’ve unfollowed her recently. She contributes nothing constructive to me personally.
