Ah the modern IE is finally making some tiny movements among the huge mountain of stuff it’s behind on!

Absolutely, but since I am using almost only Apple devices currently, having Safari’s centralized and synced bookmarks is too big of a convenience for now. And yeah, when I was using MacBooks before, Safari’s impact on battery life was much smaller than that of Firefox’s.

If I could manage bookmarks on my own I’d ditch Safari pretty quickly.

To be fair, most of the modern “web standards” are complete bollocks, e.g. Bluetooth audio accessible from the browser? Why?!
