What is going on with Safari Development???
When I first got a mac back in 2010, I started using Safari and never once had the urge to use Firefox or Chrome.
But lately with the last major release (I think the same release that dropped support for MS Windows) It seems Safari is going in the wrong direction.
First, there is the "go back" behavior - I visit a page, click a link, and when I swipe back, it briefly shows the prior page, then reloads it.
Then there are some developer related things- I personally don't like the new web inspector - but that could just be me.
Lastly, today I was playing with some javascript development and thought my code was broken, but it wasn't it was just Safari not working -
I had some javascript on a page - first it displayed an alert, then it was supposed to change text on the page.
As it turns out, on my 27" screen, the alert appeared away from the safari window, and then safari would not update until I moused back over the open window.
Mind you no focus changed, Safari was still the foreground app, etc....
It's really, really saddening to see Apple fall from grace like this - I wish it were just Safari, but if you look at reviews of all the apple apps on the app store - you'll see lots of so-so reviews and many complaints of unusable software bugs that have been broken for months.
I really want to hang on here.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Have people largely migrated off Safari?
I'm about ready to remove it from my Dock, but I really don't want to.
