WebKitGTK is now officially maintained in a lockstep with Safari. Epiphany is therefore quite similar to Safari, notably for rendering and JS (through JavaScriptCore, also part of the project). This is nice to be able to test on “Safari” without having an Apple machine.
I used GNOME Web as my main desktop browser for a few months a while back, and it worked for everything except for lacking WebRTC. I think the only sites that outright refused to work were Outlook (worked after spoofing a Safari UA string) and Chase (they simply refused even with another UA string). Nothing didn’t work because of the browser itself (except for anything requiring the aforementioned WebRTC).

Is fractional scaling supported properly yet?

Mostly. I think media queries are still a problem but maybe this is fixed. On my main machine, I am using a 2x factor.
