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?

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

ES6 has very little to do with keeping up with Web APIs. See https://platform-status.mozilla.org/

Notably Fetch API and WebRTC for my use-cases.
