5 years and still no fixes.
I agree that Safari updates tied to OS is bad, but it is even worse when there are no bugfixes in 5 years.
* Loading 5+ images at same time (few millisec) then it also crashes web pages. Images do not have to be big, but it is timing issue.
* Geolocation API loses connection and unable to reconnect in PWA after screen lock or app change.
Those are few examples.

You can report those bugs but if it is more complicated then Apple does not have staff to fix those.
