      Developers not bothering with Android features because they don’t exist on iOS is both infuriating and gives me IE6 era vibes.

        But… this is a nearly opposite situation, no? Microsoft added a bunch of their own shit with no attempt at standardization, and instead of simply not using those features, a ton of websites started making IE a hard requirement.
