> If these tangents came with constructive ideas about how to improve the situation, that would be fine. But the only suggestions people seem to offer are to abandon the web as a lost cause or break the web somehow. Some of us are suggesting constructive alternatives: - test your site in all major browsers - make sure it works without JavaScript and is readble without styling. Thst is unless you are creating a frontend application. We've been complaining about this since IE6 and we had it more or less nailed for a while around web 2.0 until enough devs started thinking - it was enough to target Chrome and - JavaScript is available everywhere. There's no reason why most blogs and news sites should need JavaScript. And there is no reason why Chrome monoculture should be more acceptable than IE6 monoculture.
