Don't use Safari

An open letter to my desktop Safari users.

You wanna know why Propcart is buggin' out.

Here’s the deal. Safari… is Safari.

At this point, Safari is basically the last flip phone at the smartphone party. It technically works, but only if you’re okay with helping it "catch up" once in a while.

Propcart is built and tested for Chrome. Chrome follows modern web standards. Safari follows… vibes.

Because we deploy Dashboard updates frequently (usually nightly), Chrome sees new versions and says:

"Ah yes, a new build. I shall fetch it."

Safari says:

"What if… instead… I keep using the version from 3 Tuesdays ago? Along with random bits of last night's release. This should speed up load times!

So when Safari gets stuck like this, you’ll see errors that look like the app is speaking in tongues. That’s not Propcart breaking — that’s Safari waking up after a 4-hour nap and forgetting who it is.

Luckily there’s a ritual to fix it:

Safari Cache Exorcism Ritual

Press Command + Option + E → This purges whatever dimension Safari caches live in.

Then press Command + R to reload.

After that, things usually snap back to reality.

If you ever see weirdness in Chrome, a simple Command + Shift + R does the same thing, but Chrome typically behaves like a rational adult so this is rare.

All that said: You can use Safari. You’ll just… experience life more than Chrome users do. Spiritually. Emotionally. Viscerally.

Let me know if the cache purge doesn’t fix it — I have stronger spells.
