Safari is a fine browser, just as Firefox and Chrome are [0].
Regarding CSS Grid Lanes, I find it to be a better name than "masonry".
I'm not sure how often I'd actually reach for grid lanes, but I guess not often.
What good use cases would you see for grid lanes today?

How does "brick" mean "content flows in the column direction"? Don't you lay bricks row by row?

For a new project I looked into supporting grid-lanes with the polyfill on Simon Willisons website. But sadly the polyfill is not comparible to the native experience. The column width calculation is off.

Safari continues to have the best developer tools, so long as you don't need to debug JavaScript.
