tl;dr the site works with IE9 and IE10.
I find the style of writing of this post extremely obnoxious, was it really necessary to say the exact same thing with slightly different order in the words over and over? If your post is to be short because there's not a lot to say, don't extend it unnecessarily, get to the point, move on.
- davidjgraph 14y agoI thought that. Plus the commenter that tries to explain that Microsoft built up a good deal of "trust debt" over the IE 6-8 period for those who had to code through it, gets the same repeated in the comments. It's all very well that it technically might work, but we're dealing with humans here, humans that have been annoyed for a long time...
- dmix 14y agoMicrosofts trust debt will start repairing when noone uses IE7 anymore. It's still at about 10% worldwide so many of use still have to fix mystery JS bugs in IE7 and even still some CSS oddities in IE8.
- Joeri 14y agoNot to mention the joy of "can't execute code from a freed script" in IE9 (code that works fine in every other browser, even IE6, magically broke in IE9).
- cooldeal 14y agoI guess that the writer is (understandably) pissed, especially at Paydirt using a torn IE icon image on their browser denial page. https://paydirtapp.com/assets/ie_broken-7502950b14013927bbde4c0416f7a515.png https://paydirtapp.com/assets/ie_broken-7502950b14013927bbde... You would be pissed too, if someone claimed your product that you worked hard on to work well is publicly called out to be broken when it is not and dropping support for it a user feature(indirectly suggesting others should do it too).
- philjohn 14y agoIt has the same level of obnoxiousness as paydirt's to be fair.
