"...folks tend to prefer homogeneity of their program set across devices."
You must know different folks than I do. Most of the people I know that aren't developers wonder why the icon for "internet" has a big E on it. I can guarantee you that the grand majority of people don't realize that the web browser on their mobile device isn't the same as the web browser on their desktop. And if they do, they're unlikely to be using IE right now anyway.
- troutwine 16y agoYes, it's very likely that I know different folks. That's why I hedged my comment by noting that it was purely anecdotal: I tend to associate with computer scientists, mathematicians and medievalists. The first and last groups tend to be most interested in homogeneity, in my experience. Besides, if we're to say that IE is "back in the game" then surely we should count only those who make a conscious decision to use IE; otherwise we're using vastly different terms.
