In fact, Safari is still the best browser when it comes to everything UI-related (animations, visual effects, …).

I'm a Safari user who develops first and foremost in Safari, and I completely disagree with this. Chrome runs rings around Safari in UI animation performance, it's almost embarrassing.

I read this as a comment about the design decisions in the Safari UI, not how it performs.

So the stuff that I shouldn't spend time using in a browser? I don't really open up a browser hoping to spend time with it's UI.

First: I'm not the one who made the original comment, and therefore not the person you should be taking this up with. So why have you written this to me?

Second: If you are going to involve me in this, then I'll point out that of course people care about their browser UI, otherwise everyone would be using something like Conkeror, except with an even more ascetic UI philosophy.
