Honest question, why does the fediverse like firefox so much? This is not a common opinion to have on the internet, but everyone here and on mastodon seems to have it.
Because otherwise you'd be supporting the Chromium monopoly, and that's the biggest sin imaginable in the Fediverse.
Safari user sitting quietly in the corner
Here's the best part to that. Safari's back end is called WebKit. At one point in time it was considered best in class. It was also the backend for Chrome as well for awhile.
Chrome still uses WebKit.
They forked it into Blink a long time ago now. They've diverged significantly since then.
