I _do_ use XSLT on my tiny, low-traffic blog, and I _don't_ think that it's reasonable for browser devs to tell me to update my code.
Also, it's real easy to manufacture a situation where adoption of a thing is low when the implementation is incomplete and hasn't had significant updates for decades.
- tsimionescu 1y agoThe web has grown a thousand fold over those decades, in spite of no support for XSLT. No browser has failed (or gained market traction) by missing support for (or adding more support for) XSLT. It's an irrelevancy, even if you did like it once. Lots of content was lost when Flash was removed as well - much, much more than the amount of content that will be lost if XSLT is removed. And yet the web continued.
