    This was due to Firefox at the time not implementing web standards that Chrome did.

    Uhm, yeah, that’s what browsers do. There are somewhere about 150 web standards and some are hard requirement while others are soft. Blink has some implemented that Webkit hasn’t but Gecko has and that’s true for all three. Same for browsers.

    Btw, the one with the most implemented standards is QtWebkit by far. It’s still slower tho.

      Yeah? I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with that. I’m saying it’s bullshit to say a developer has done a crap job when one browser doesn’t implement a web standard that is perfect tailor-made for their site’s use case.

        If your job is to make websites and you make sites that don’t work on a browser that has over 100 million users you’re not doing your job.

        Still a bad job tho, if his implementation requires things that aren’t common and has no workarounds in place.
