If the media host doesn't have CORS enabled, then Safari cannot properly support range requests. The reason for this is:
There is a bug in WebKit that causes ServiceWorker not to allow range requests to pass through normally.
The only known workaround for this issue is to issues a CORS-enabled request to the server, read the bytes, and strip out everything but the requested bytes (i.e. serving a pseudo-range request).
But this isn't possible if the server doesn't support CORS, and lots of Mastodon instances use media servers that don't support CORS (e.g. awoo.space).
