meh. it looks really nice but I would rather do the basic styling I can do now for the 99% of the times where I don't really need it.

I have said it before, everyone (Developers that use Chrome almost exclusively) says Safari is the new IE but Chrome has been slowing becoming the thing they fought against since they defeated IE.

I'm sitting here for a few years already, happily using Safari as my main driver. Recently switched to Orion to get Safari + Chrome/FF plugins. Best combination.

Easy on the battery, freaking fast, low ram usage, and plugin support (ALSO on iOS, yes, uBlock on iOS). Screw firefox, screw chrome.

Yes, I also dev on Orion. The dev tools are fine.

One of the main features I love about Safari is that in private browsing mode, the tabs (at least) appear to be completely isolated.

If I go to Facebook and login in one tab, then open a second tab and go Facebook, it doesn't recognize that I have logged in. There's moments where that is annoying but most of the time it's useful.

Yeah they are, which is IMO a good thing but it'd be better if you could link them somehow, maybe have a temporary session or something.
