This week is the WebKit Contributor’s meeting — with the browser engineers who contribute to WebKit. Including from Apple, Igalia, Sony, Redhat & more.

Did you know that WebKit is not just the browser engine for Safari — but for many other browsers, apps, and platforms as well? Igalia @igalia maintains two of them: WebKitGTK @WebKitGTK and WPE @WPEWebKit

WebKit is especially great for devices that don’t have a lot of power. It’s used for digital signs, medical devices, game consoles and more!

@jensimmons @igalia @WebKitGTK @WPEWebKit I just switched back from Firefox to Safari (after FF leaning into advertising and AI), and the battery life of my M1 is easily 2x or more of what it was with FF, even with an extension that snoozed inactive tabs. Crazy. Thanks for your work on power efficiency, keep it up!!! 🙏
@jni @jensimmons @igalia @WebKitGTK @WPEWebKit I love Safari, despite REALLY wanting there to be competition for it (no offense Jen 😀) but it is flat out the most privacy aware and effective web browser out there (IMO)
