Open issues is a pretty bad metric, especially considering the other major open source browsers would make PhantomJS look downright perfect.

Chrome: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list

73,025 open issues

Firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIR...

10,000 open issues.

[curiously]

apples and oranges. chrome and firefox is used by millions of people. of course its going to have more eyes on it but when was the last time you couldn't render something in your browser?

phantomjs is used mainly by developers. you can't seriously compare it to chrome or firefox.

quick scan shows that most of the bugs showing up in chrome and firefox are very platform centric or esoteric issues while phantomjs is concerning because they are literally about being unable to render a webpage without crashing.
