I noticed the WebKit quirks file even has rules for new websites, like claude.ai.

That feels like a bad idea in my opinion… in my mind it would make sense to wait for Anthropic to address any browser compatibility issues, especially since claude.ai is clearly software that is being regularly worked on.

I can understand quirks for old websites/ones from companies that work very slowly, but this seems strange to me.

The reason stated in the article seems sound to me: if it’s broken ins safari/ff but works in chrome, users conclude that the browser is the problem and switch to chrome.
