Which specific unimplemented standards are preventing your work? I’ve opened plenty of bugs in all of the major browsers and it’s decidedly not the case that they’re mostly Safari.
Last year’s interoperability push ended with a noticeable lag for Chrome:

Yes, we know. Now think about whether it’s possible that working at the same company might make them less quick to prioritize work which undercuts a key selling point their company spent billions marketing. It’s not like the YouTube developers didn’t notice the big effort to put Chrome banners all over the site was a management priority.
Anyone who remembers how Microsoft products used to have weird bugs when used in non-IE browsers knows how that could end.

Still no proper Opus support, where it was available in Firefox 10 years ago.
Also bugs. My experience is that it's a common occurrence that I make a change, and it works correctly in Firefox and Chrome, but it breaks in Safari and I need a workaround just for it.
