    Stop autoplay videos in Safari

    I know that Safari can stop autoplay videos on the Mac, but can it do it on iOS? My searches have turned up nothing. I find it annoying that my music gets hijacked by these autoplay videos.

    Safari bookmarks

    Is there a standalone bookmarks manager for Safari? The built-in bookmarks manager sucks. The closest I have found is Pins, but it's not perfect because it cannot directly edit Safari bookmark XML files. For those not in the know, I'm talking about the file in ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist...

    Why is Safari 12 so slow compared to Chrome 71 and Firefox 64?

    I love staying in Apple's ecosystem, but recently I downloaded the latest Chrome and Firefox browser and am stunned to see web pages load on the latter two browsers almost twice as fast as Safari in Mojave. I thought Apple boasted that Safari was the fastest browser out there? It's nowhere near...

    Save Image on Safari

    When I use force touch and press save an image on safari sometime the image flies up and sometimes it flies down. I've never figured out how it decides to fly up or down, it seems random and always goes to my camera roll regardless of the direction. Anyone have any ideas?

    Amazon giveaway popups on Safari/Chrome browsers!

    Any way to stop this? I downloaded adblock from the appstore, turned popups on and off (and back on again) in both the settings for Safari/Chrome, and deleted the web data/history on Safari that I read about in a Google search. What's causing this? It's quite annoying.
