My iOS/Safari is so bad, I have both Firefox and Chrome installed as a backup in case it doesn't work. They should start fixing Safari for real instead of adding Quirks.
I have bad news for you. On iOS, Firefox and Chrome use the same WebKit as Safari (because Apple doesn't allow third party browser engines on its App store).
So Microsoft got dragged through anti-trust hell for just bundling IE with Windows and letting you install whatever browser you wanted after that, but Apple gets away with literally banning you from installing the browser you want on your own device, but that's ok? Make it make sense.
Safari on MacOS is really nice, fast and offers everything I need... but every 3 months or so I stumble on a website that refuses to work at all - rendering looks off, buttons don't work etc...
Switching to Chrome usually fixes it - but I always question my sanity for about 10 minutes until I try it in Chrome.

Didn't they allow alternative engines recently?
They even have emulators now. Undoubtedly a change forced on them by the EU.

That's an odd way of saying the third most popular browser.
If you click link, look at chart, you'll see they mean second.
That's always confusing. They should have said "the second most popular browser (after Chrome)", or something like that.
