I think you should re-read my comment. Fyi I already knew that Safari now supports vp9 webm. As a web dev I keep up with this stuff. In my comment I said that they are so behind.

There's another list of Safari's failures here: https://httptoolkit.tech/blog/safari-is-killing-the-web/. In fact from the article

> According to Can I Use's metrics, Safari is lacking about 10% behind Firefox and 15% behind Chrome in feature support.

And if these were only features that Google cared about, then Safari wouldn't be behind Firefox. But they are.

And in terms of webm/webp support, imo this stuff does matter. Webm/webp is much more efficient than gifs for audioless video content. But if a startup is moving fast and they see Safari doesn't support webp, they simply aren't going to use it. They're not going to bother storing two formats for everything. So now everybody's page load speed is impacted.
