chome is bad and highly inefficient so it will brute force ur cpus but also macs have trash cooling because that way they can brag about low fan noise

chome and slowfari both use slowkit which is very very bad, but where chome will eat all your cpu as it fails to render, slowfari atleast keeps its fail aids to a single core.

I used to use Chrome on my mac until I realized it was slow as gently caress and full of fail aids. So I switched to firefox, but now firefox seems slow and full of fail aids. I'm quickly running out of options here

safari is the best browser, even on my 4GB 2013 Macbook Air it has no problems.

and it has AirDrop, iCloud bookmarks, iCloud tabs and iCloud Keychain support cross-platform with iOS so i don't see how anyone can use anything else and still justify paying extra to be in this eco-system.

well at least each version of it isn't an application of its own

idk why it took them this long to figure out that was a bad idea for browsers though

whereas iphones just worked and didn't necessitate restoring the phone to possibly fix an issue caused by a poorly designed and implemented update

the point is that iphones didn't require janitoring, and now they do thanks to tim's poor leadership
