GTK+ Kimmo Kinnunen wrote yesterday on the GTK+-WebCore developer mailing list that he has imported the Safari 2.0 WebCore branch into GTK+-WebCore. "This means that from the webcore/javascriptcore part, the code is mostly the same as in current Safari. So if there are any crashes, they're not from webcore/javascriptcore part of the codebase with very high probability, rather my code."

Safari is a piece of crap

Am I the only one who hates Safari? It crashes on me several times a week, sometimes so hard it completely wipes its own settings. Yeah, Firefox isn't as fast, but at least its stable.

You may be interested in trying Webkit, which is Safari with a later version of the HTML engine. There are a lot of fixes and particularly also speedups. It's not always as stable, as it's bleeding edge, but there are new builds every day.

Webkit is available here:
