This I have users that have issues with Safari, CSS and Javascripts ones. I MUST own an Apple device to debug anything. I'm sorry but as a Free Software Web Developer I can't spend 2K€ on a Mac to just fix a CSS issue. | ||||||||

Frequently, but not always, I can reproduce such bugs using Epiphany [1] or other WebKit based browsers. That's at least somewhat cheaper when it works. | ||||||||

You can buy a refurb Mac mini for €589. Macs haven't started at €2K since the early 90s. | ||||||||

When I was making money as a developer I purchased wintel systems to verify my work. I thought of it as the cost of doing business. Many Macs cost less then 2K euros. | ||||||||

> I'm sorry but as a Free Software Web Developer I can't spend 2K€ on a Mac to just fix a CSS issue More like $200-300 for a used M1 mini or Air… Or free to just run macOS in a VM if you don’t care about breaking an EULA you never signed in the first place… | ||||||||

A Mac mini is pretty affordable. Also you can use browserstack. | ||||||||
