That's the apple user credo. "If I can't do it, it's really better anyhow because I didn't need to".
A decent web browser isn't deeply tied to the operating system version and isn't 5 years behind on some features while pigheadedly refusing to ever implement others. A decent web browser doesn't force you to use it. You choose it among other options and seek it out. A decent electronics company doesn't force you to buy proprietary cables just to charge their devices.
Congratulations though, your website users are all wealthy westerners.
They are the farthest thing from it, lmao, you dont even know how wrong you are, but I see you stí´ possess the teenage angst of ios v android wars
Okay, if "angst" means I routinely suffer on the job because of shitty apple business practices, call it whatever you want. The reason I have all these issues is that apple architected safari this way, and we have a lot of lower income users that we don't have the privilege of ignoring. I'm guessing many of them know if they update their OS they will experience planned obsolescence first hand, so they have no choice but to use a 5 year old web browser that was 3 years behind standards on the day it was released.
