    I tried changing "Backspace/Delete" to go back on Safari. It was suggested to me, so I tried it a few days ago and it worked. It did not replace the Command+[ Safari shortcut, the "Backspace/Delete" works in addition to Command+[. So I tried using "Backspace/Delete" to go back for a while and I...

    Apple has completely removed ProMotion from Safari starting in Safari 17/macOS Sonoma

    This is not a visual change in the Developer context menus either, the "WebKitExperimentalPreferPageRenderingUpdatesNear60FPSEnabled" has been completely removed from the Safari Plist.

    Can you have a different set of bookmarks based on a created profile in Safari in iOS 17?

    Or is it a shared group of bookmarks between profiles? I'd love the ability to have different bookmarks depending on the profile selected.
