He is parroting a year old clickbait headline (https://nolanlawson.com/2015/06/30/safari-is-the-new-ie/) where the main gripes were that

- Apple didn't attend EdgeConf 2015

- https://webkit.org/blog/ was not updated often enough

- Safari 9 had a seriously buggy IndexedDB (fixed in Safari 10)

I would rather refer to this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12051267

I'm not the only one who think Safari is a joke compared to the competition. While IE6 was much much worse than what Safari is today, I feel like history is repeating itself again. And ES6 support is irrelevant when the main goal is to make sure websites renders and behave correctly, which is more painful for Safari than the other browsers.

I still have flexbox issues on Safari https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136041

How does that opinion survive reality, e.g. Safari being the first browser to reach 100% ES6 compliance?

>I still have flexbox issues on Safari https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136041*

So? All browsers still have Flexbox issues. Here are Chrome's:

IndexedDB is actually not fixed in Safari 10: https://www.reddit.com/r/javascript/comments/545ylm/psa_inde...

Hopefully they'll figure it out eventually!
