    Regarding extensions, my understanding is that Apple makes it hard to prevent a bunch of trash extensions showing up that don’t do anything worthwhile.

      I have no idea exactly what that means.

      But Apple provides extensions for most functionalities, but, as you mentioned, they’re more limited because Apple used to require that extension developers register a $100 per year account in order to develop extensions.

      They don’t do this anymore, but it was a big reason why Safari got held back, especially in the beginning of the browser wars.
