- cageface 8y agoDepending on how much it costs in extra developer hours supporting an older browser it might actually make quite a bit of sense for many companies, especially smaller ones without a well established product.
- rootedbox 8y agoHow much does that 5% bring in profit. If that is more than the amount it costs to keep the support. Then keep it.. other wise remove.
- doublekill 8y agoPurely from a business perspective you are correct. Can not put a price on accessibility though (screenreader, forced IE use, etc.). Especially for content websites I don't think there is a non-economic reason to justify non-accessible content.
