Spent hours making an animated SVG and Safari doesn't handle it (lemmy.balamb.fr)

Not only Safari is unable to show basic elements (less than Gnome Web which is Webkit based too), there's no single proper tool to export the fricking SVG to GIF. I've never wanted to flip a table that much in my life.

Safari was also late to implement AV1 video support. Based on caniuse website, only MS Edge was later, though you could install an extension to get it running.

Oh, and when I say "support", I mean you'd have to buy a new device.

Supported only on devices with hardware decoder, e.g. iPhone 15 Pro, M3 MacBook Pro, etc.

Edit: Chrome since v. 70 (2018-10-16), Firefox fully since v. 67 (2019-05-21), Firefox partially since v. 55 (2017-08-08) whatever "Not supported by default, but can be enabled" means, Safari since v. 17 on newer devices (2023-09-26)

"Not supported by default, but can be enabled"

If it's about Firefox, it means you can go to the dusty basement breakerbox that's about:config and turn it on yourself.
