I’m excited for the MacBook Neo from the perspective of it being a reasonably priced Safari/WebKit testing machine.

I imagine they’ll be cheap second-hand as well due to the education market.

The lower-end specs shouldn’t be an issue for testing either. They might even prove a benefit.

It bugged me that it is not obvious how Safari 26 decides which background color to use for its browser chrome. I wrote about what I found out so far, including a trick to apply a custom theme color and a demo:

Define the Theme Color for Safari 26

With theme_color unshipped, what are our options to control the background color of Safari 26 browser UI?

Another concern is that if you are making some particle effects for your website, do not simply render and refresh the particles in the DOM like me. Though this method performs well on Chrome, it will cause a low frame rate on Safari.

Instead, canvas works better. (In case you want to support Safari and its users.)

A screenshot of Chrome DevTools displaying HTML for numerous flake div elements, illustrating the use of the DOM to render particle effects. The console at the bottom shows that the parent container has a child element count of 209.

Safari, the stretched image "fits" you so much. 🤣

An image comparison shows a web element rendering differently in Safari and Chrome. In Safari, an anime poster is vertically stretched due to the "height: fit-content" CSS property, while it appears correctly proportioned in Chrome.

living with continues to reveal new / “features” 😡🤬

the toolbar now has enormous text & button elements^ that have presumably led to the decision to remove the tabs button / icon & relegating to a pop-up menu – so now viewing open tabs requires two taps instead of one, & switching to a different tab now requires three taps instead of two… 🤦‍♀️

these are the alleged “design geniuses” of at work, folks 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
 
 
 
^ I have old eyes, so I tend to run most app text size at 120% – but I’ve checked the toolbar layout at other text sizes all the way down to 80% & it doesn’t change the elements presented, so the tabs button / icon doesn’t disappear ’coz I’m running larger text sizes, it’s just a crap design decision 💁‍♀️

Two people sit on a bus; the "Safari" person looks unhappy on the dark side, while the "Chrome" person smiles on the bright side.

The "official" Unicode Regular Expressions (UTS #18) document, dated February 8, 2022, has never been updated since then, and the four new Unicode properties introduced in Unicode 15.1 are only listed in the Proposed Update *draft*, dated May 11, 2023...

This could explain why , , and the framework () trigger an "invalid property" error for the /\p{IDS_Unary_Operator}/u in JavaScript, while /\p{IDS_Binary_Operator}/u is ok...

さては 、`writing-mode: vertidal-rl;` の実装微妙だな?
なんか縦書き折り返しとか発生している状態で `overflow: scroll` とかになってると余計なスクロールがうまれる…

そもそも が使いづらすぎという問題もある。スタイルとか上書きしてると結構バグっぽい感じになってリロードせざるを得ないみたいなのによくぶつかる。
選択してる要素と違う要素のスタイル一覧表示してきたり、スタイルパネルでスタイル上書きしても要素に適応されなかったり。

もうちょっとどうにかならないか… :tony_sigh:

Any Tab Groups users out there? A recent update seems to now auto-expand groups when I click on them, making this feature pretty much useless to me. Is it just me? I can’t seem to find a setting to turn it off.

@jensimmons any ideas?

が、以前チャレンジした前衛的な UI(タブとアドレスバーを同一のモノとして見せたUI)をひっそりと引っ込めて、サイドバーとタブバーには重複する情報が表示されちゃってる最中に、
はカスタマイズの自由度がさらに上がって、たとえば横置きしたタブバーにアドレスバーとかナビゲーションをまとめた、いわゆる 的な UI をつくることも出来るようになったのはなんか象徴的だなと思って見てる。

:vivaldi_red: はとにかくユーザーの選択肢を極力増やして、減らさない。だから新しい UI のアイディアを取り込んでも、それが気に入らないユーザーはカスタマイズして元に戻せる。

一方、 🧭 には(すくなくとも :vivaldi_red: ほどの)カスタマイズの自由度はなくて、そんな中で野心的に挑戦した新しい UI は多数派のユーザーには受け入れられず、一旦「オプションとして選択可能」という形で残すもの今回のアップデートで削除(されたのかな?自分が設定をみつけられていないだけか?)されたという、この差。

To elaborate on my hostility against WebKit: WebKit does nothing but get in my way whenever I work on literally any website.

When I rewrote nouveau's website in late 2023, the website worked perfectly fine on Firefox (Gecko) and Chromium (Blink), but was broken on Epiphany/Safari (WebKit). The logo, which is an SVG, would not adapt to dark style, because, to this day, WebKit still does not support prefers-color-scheme in SVGs. So, as a workaround, instead of having one SVG file for both color schemes, we have one SVG file for light style, and one for dark style.

Another example: On my website, some elements are intentionally made to be unselectable using user-select: none;, such as the command-line decoration and the “Table of Contents” text, but on WebKit, these elements continue to be selectable because it does not properly support the user-select property. And no, using the vendor prefix is completely unacceptable, especially considering that it behaves differently.

Lastly, WebKit does not yet fully support the ::marker pseudo-element. This means, in my articles, numbered list items in the table of contents are completely wrong and don't represent the same numbers as headings.

Apple has consistently proved that they don't care about WebKit, because otherwise browsers like Safari and Epiphany would have worked as well as they do on Firefox and Chromium. There's absolutely no reason to force WebKit onto iOS and iPadOS if they're not even willing to invest in WebKit. Likewise, Apple employees working on WebKit should really stop calling themselves “WebKit evangelists” if their inferior engine regularly gets in developers’ way. So yes, WebKit sucks, and this is 100% on Apple. I don't care about being harsh. Apple is a multi-trillion dollar company, most of which came from exploiting people. The least they can do is invest in their projects.

For clarity, my hostility towards WebKit is purely targeted at Apple's lack of involvement with WebKit, not the browsers using it.

::marker - CSS | MDN

The ::marker CSS pseudo-element selects the marker box of a list item, which typically contains a bullet or number. It works on any element or pseudo-element set to display: list-item, such as the <li> and <summary> elements.

After using for more than a month, I can say it is absolutely worth the money. The results are miles better than Google or DuckDuckGo for the kinds of searches I regularly do.

The ability to block, raise, lower and pin sites in your search results is fantastic.

But really needs it added as a search engine option, because while the Kagi plugin is a good workaround to redirect searches, it shouldn’t be needed.

Denne gjelder fortsatt; det hadde vært fint om de store browserene hadde innebygget oppdaging av feeds med en dedikert knapp eller meny.

Litt på samme måte som Firefox nå kan oppdate OpenGraph-headere for forhåndsvisning av lenker.

Browsers removed the RSS Button and they should bring it back

Safari really should have Kagi as a search engine option.

Or, give us the ability to add search engines!

I’ve moved on from DuckDuckGo now. When you search for something and the top results are irrelevant *ads*, it’s the time to say goodbye.

Switching from Safari? We’ve made it almost too easy. One click and your browser data’s already home. Break free from that Big Tech browser with Vivaldi. 😌

A user switches from Safari to Vivaldi. First, they use Safari to navigate to vivaldi.com, download and install the latest version of Vivaldi for computers. After opening Vivaldi and logging in, they import all their Safari browser data with one click by selecting the Safari icon. The process is simple and smooth, with no drama, ready to browse instantly.

I'm very happy with Orion as my browser, but I'm really curious why it's so snappy compared to Safari, when it looks more or less like a "tweaked" version of Safari.

Why is Safari so slow then?

The only thing I miss is more color variants to change the icon. @kagihq

This is my next main browser: a review of Orion

Orion is currently my favourite browser, and has replaced Safari entirely on one of my primary Macs. Here's why.

there is also a partial second male deer (out of focus) in the frame.

the bird has a black head, rusty/orange wing feathers, as well as white and black streaks. 

the deer is rich brown in color, and has white spots. the antler has a velvety feel to it.

Omg. I attempted to debug an issue in safari, where a position: fixed; element didn't correctly align to the viewports edge and I couldn't find out why, until I noticed that it is now relatively positioned to the next element with `container: inline-size;` on it.

Is this how it is supposed to be? This is only the case in safari

@jon@vivaldi.net

My survey showed that most users are not happy with the browser that comes with their computers. If you are using one of those browsers, how about trying something new?

Does your browser have workspaces? Tab stacks? Tab tiles? Windows panel? Page capture? Sync? Custom themes with custom buttons? Web panels? Mouse gestures? Editable keyboard shortcuts?

Want to try a browser that has all of the above and more?

Here are the results of my "What is your favorite browser?" survey, here on Mastodon. These are some very interesting results.

It is clear that the incumbents are not getting a lot of love. Edge gets 2% and Chrome gets 5%. These browsers are widely used, but not very popular, based on this survey.

Safari does a lot better at 16%, the same as Vivaldi. The enthusiasm level from those that use Vivaldi is high and plenty of people also mention Vivaldi as a secondary option.

Opera gets just 1%.

Firefox gets 60%, so clearly a strong showing here in the Fediverse, although many say they use Firefox only because they do not want to use a Chromium based browser.

The cool part is then that 13% say they prefer another browser. Plenty of smaller browsers getting a mention, which is nice.

If you notice that the total is higher than 100%, then that is because I allowed people to select more than one browser, although most did not.

If you are still using Chrome or Edge, maybe it is time to try something new? You have a choice!

Given the Firefox stuff that's happening and the announcement of ladybird, I think it's a good idea to mention a browser project that's got no controversy I can see but could use time and money, @servo.

Servo is a browser engine made in Rust, it was made to be an experimental engine by Mozilla but the Linux Foundation is hosting it now. What I especially like is how modular it is, compared to other engines I feel I can make a better browser with it and its components help other projects too!

If you want to see a browser that can be maintained in pieces instead of monolithically it's worth checking out! they need serious CSS/flexbox help to get up to par with other browsers but the webGL and WASM is top notch.

Many mainly are data collection tools for advertising companies.
You can assume that everything you do through or is collected, saved to your data profile, and used for targeted advertising. Your data is shared between browsers only if you are "signed in" to the same account. So you should use different browsers for different online activities.
The practice is called .
