Who's writing native ES6 code? Support for IE8 is just now starting to slip in the community (due too old, mundane things like Object.defineProperty). Almost every package on NPM targets ES3. Also, IE never ran everywhere. Targeting IE8 is hard, targeting IE6 was a nightmare.
- geuis 10y agoI can't speak for you, but I've worked at a few companies and done some contracts overs the last 5 years and supporting ie8 easily stopped around 2012.
