Browser incompatibilities are mostly gone, where they still exist frameworks tend to do nothing to solve them. I write web stuff and I used to do the dance of testing with a bunch of browsers and fixing stuff. Since IE 11 there have been basically nothing to fix, the browsers really do behave the same.
