 The NGINX annotation `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-path` defines the path that will be set on the cookie. This is optional unless the annotation `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-regex` is set to true; Session cookie paths do not support regex.
 
-Use `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-samesite` to apply a `SameSite` attribute to the sticky cookie. Browser accepted values are `None`, `Lax`, and `Strict`. Some older browsers reject cookies with the more-recently-defined `SameSite=None`. To omit `SameSite=None` from these older browsers, add the annotation `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-conditional-samesite-none: "true"`.
+Use `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-samesite` to apply a `SameSite` attribute to the sticky cookie. Browser accepted values are `None`, `Lax`, and `Strict`. Some browsers reject cookies with `SameSite=None`, including those created before the `SameSite=None` specification (e.g. Chrome 5X). Other browsers mistakenly treat `SameSite=None` cookies as `SameSite=Strict` (e.g. Safari running on OSX 14). To omit `SameSite=None` from browsers with these incompatibilities, add the annotation `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-conditional-samesite-none: "true"`.
