> Nobody wants to be testing against multiple browser/rendering engines in 2019.

Speak for yourself.

I hate to break it to you, but in the real world there are multiple browsers.

Not testing in more than one is lazy, standards ignorant and an insult to your users.

Let’s not repeat the MSIE-fiasco again. We know better. We can do better.

Slack et al are more successful with users, and have delivered more value to them, than 99% of the work people who post here are doing. Pretty sure this isn't insulting them.

And for the last time, this isn't the MSIE-fiasco all over again. The primary engines used today are all open sourced, it's not vendor lock in on the level it used to be.
