This was fixed but then reverted. No further updates 3 months later. https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=305622

Not sure how this comment is related to Safari Technology Preview, though, which is Mac-only.

The only way for commoners to reach the actual devs is HN or similar, bug trackers are as useful as a wishing well.

The odds of Safari devs reading the comments on a Safari-related HN piece is quite high, and reporting long-standing bugs here might actually get fixes

See also: the biweekly ”Microsoft closed my account and is stonewalling me” post here. Those reliably manage to break the customer service blockade

This is untrue for the WebKit open source project. Many of the bugs I've reported via the Bugzilla have been fixed.

Kind of a confusing title, but maybe it means more to the WebKit team. I don't think I've ever seen jetsam used as a verb before.

On the other hand, Reddit is trying so hard to funnel users to their app that this bug might solve itself at some point.
