Microsoft's new Edge browser is a great alternative to Chrome for those seldom occasions when Safari won't do
Safari is my main browser across all my Apple devices. While it's a good browser, that isn't necessarily by choice, as Apple prevents their users from choosing a different default browser. However, in macOS you have a bit more freedom than Apple's other platforms, and while I still use Safari...- brinary001

iPhone Double-tap to zoom gone?
In Chrome (and presumably Safari) it used to be possible to double-tap a block of text and the view would automatically snap to the width of the text. That no longer works in 13. Is that an option somewhere now? It’s possible to pinch to zoom but the old tap method was instant and one-handed.- jknight8907
