Apple Releases Safari Technology Preview 244 With Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements

Apple today released a new update for Safari Technology Preview, the experimental browser that was first introduced in March 2016. Apple designed ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ to allow users to test features that are planned for future release versions of the Safari browser.

Safari Technology Preview Updated Feature 1
‌Safari Technology Preview‌ 244 includes fixes and updates for Accessibility, Animations, CSS, Forms, HTML, Images, JavaScript, MathML, Media, Networking, Rendering, SVG, Scrolling, Security, Storage, Web API, Web Extensions, Web Inspector, WebAssembly, WebGL, and WebGPU.

The current ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ release is compatible with machines running macOS Sequoia and macOS Tahoe, the newest version of macOS.

The ‌Safari Technology Preview‌ update is available through the Software Update mechanism in System Preferences or System Settings to anyone who has downloaded the browser from Apple's website. Complete 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 it is designed for developers, it does not require a developer account to download and use.

Once again Facebook is awful to use after the last Tahoe
Sounds like a feature

Meta is probably relying on a lot of cookies and other embedded data

I bet it runs smooth as butter in chrome

An update shouldn't be an issue like this. Deleted cache, didn't help. Ran Onyx, didn't help.
Ask meta why their website doesn’t work

Web standards…

how is Onyx going to fix meta's bad web design?

The reason I switched to Firefox was GitHub. I'd always been using Safari and was frustrated by how slow GitHub was. Installing Firefox was a revelation. Turns out Safari is the slowest browser the world could ever conceive. Now using GitHub is a breeze, as well as other websites (with a brilliant ad-blocker).
