> After discovering Chrome are eating my old Mac's battery, I turned to using Edge

What? Have they tried using Safari instead of a Chromium based browser? From my experience Safari is by far the best browser on Mac in terms of the energy efficiency.

And also now arguably the best browser in terms of the standards, after hiring most of the w3c team.

I think that argument falls down in the face of the PWA mess in Europe. Standards-based application platforms, to Apple, are at best, a means to an end. And they'll throw them out the second they perceive them in competition with native apps. It's the same recipe followed by MS in the 90's.

I switched from FF to Safari to try it out a few weeks ago and the fact I can't click Command+D when I'm on a page I've bookmarked, to remove the bookmark, is killing me.

Other than that, it's been great.

Aside from testing multiple browsers, that'd make me think you want Chrome or Firefox primarily, if any difference at all they probably have best/most tooling?

If you test for Safari+Firefox it would probably work in chrome as well.
