How many of you use Safari on everything?

[ChrisD.]

After my posts in this thread, I ran it for a few days longer but I really didn't like it. I tried, honest.

(/Applications/Microsoft\ Edge.app/Contents/MacOS/Microsoft\ Edge --disable-features=msEdgeSidebarV2 &)

To the rescue, it's got rid of it.

I only really use Edge for some work sites and Twitch, I find audio can be weird with Safari.

I cannot load the ocuk forum anymore using safari on my mac or ipad but my iphone is fine. Even if I use my phone data it doesn't fix it teathering. Ipad won't work on other networks either. Anyone else had this with safari?

Safari on iOS and Chrome on PC.

What do you mean by ‘can’t load it’?

It’s working perfectly for me on multiple Macs using Safari.

No issues here with the forum and Safari.

Opera and Brave for me.

I even use it when I'm on a wildlife spotting expedition in Africa.

Having just taken delivery of my 24/1TB M2 a week ago I confess I am struggling with Safari a tad.

I am no stranger to it having used OSX before but I just can’t get it working the way I have my ancient FF setup. FF on MacOS also feels a bit more snappier for page rendering.

I have used FF since the Phoenix days and I am immensely missing extensions such as uBlock Origin, which does block YT gunk, and Reddit Enhancement Suite for example.

I will continue to try and use Safari however as it is great having bookmarks synced across my phone and tablet.

So a quick one that's bugging me. I use autocorrect when I type on this forum because I'm a bit thick and it helps me a lot but sometimes I type words I don't want to autocorrect, what's the best way to disable this while typing. Is there a better way than hitting escape before the bubble disappears or a revert button?

I add them to the dictionary. Right click, Learn Spelling.

Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome

Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.

Heh. Just when I switched back to Chrome as well .

Article isn’t clear if this affects Chromium based browsers too or just Chrome. If so then that’s a real nuisance as I was leaning towards Edge on occasions and quite enjoying the experience

Well it depends on the developer of the Chromium browser.

Which is Google unless I’m missing something.

I've been trying out Orion which is based on Safari but allows chrome/firefox extensions. It started off really unstable with video but recent releases have it at a very similar level to Safari 16.
