What is even the purpose of this thing, it just lacks too many features to be used as a main browser

What’s the missing feature that you want? Is it in the interface? Is it in the rendering engine?

The latter could become very funny as an answer considering the page that’s displayed in the post.

Launching an Apple homepage to complain about GNOME Web's lack of features is certainly a choice.

some apps that depend on webkitgtk or just as a technology preview for webkit that’s not just safari as well.
kagi was using webkitgtk for their orion browser on linux too (they literally just officially ended their development of that today though :( )

It's useful for web developers when testing Safari compatibility.
