I'd use Safari over Chrome, but Safari has a couple of show-stopping bugs:

1. Swiping back on the trackpad to navigate backwards freezes the page for a couple of seconds. It then redraws the page with any updated elements (perhaps a refresh?).

2. The element CSS attributes in the dev tools often fail to update the DOM, duplicate with every keystroke, or revert what you have typed.

1) is a known bug. The fix is to switch to 3 finger back swipe in trackpad settings. Back becomes instant.
good of apple to not fix the bug and instead rely on the internet to fix the issue, very safari
For me, for 1. it seems to do the same thing as the back button. There is a refresh, but it has to do that.
