  I'm pretty sure ASCII fell below 50% web usage around 2003.

    Huh?

      ASCII had a good run, lasting more than 32, but less than 64 years; πάντα ῥεῖ.

        The parent probably meant that UTF-8 is backward compatible with ASCII.

          Yes, I expect “A” will continue to be encoded as 01100001 far into the future.
