Apple today released a new update for Safari Technology Preview, the experimental browser Apple first introduced three years ago in March 2016. Apple designed the Safari Technology Preview to test features that may be introduced into future release versions of Safari.

Safari Technology Preview release 95 includes bug fixes and performance improvements forShadow DOM, Images, WebRTC, Clipboard API, Picture-in-Picture Web API, Service Workers, Back-Forward Cache, and Web Inspector.

The new Safari Technology Preview update is available for both macOS Mojave and MacOS Catalina, the newest version of the Mac operating system that was released in October.

The Safari Technology Preview update is available through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store to anyone who has downloaded the browser. Full release notes for the update are available on the Safari Technology Preview website.

Apple's aim with Safari Technology Preview is to gather feedback from developers and users on its browser development process. Safari Technology Preview can run side-by-side with the existing Safari browser and while designed for developers, it does not require a developer account to download.

I've been using Chrome for years, is Safari any better? might give it another go soon...

I avoid Google products because of the persistent intrusive tracking, with Chrome's various features bent to that end. I'd add that Chrome's updater system is pure malware.

I hate Google Chrome and on that note, anything Google related. I've always used Safari due to how seamlessly it integrates with my iPhone. And the privacy aspect of it is another reason I prefer it to Chrome.
