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.
