If 4.4% IE6 usage rate in China is accurate, that doesn't seem worth the effort.

- bdavisx 13y agoAcording to Wikipedia: As of 2012, China had 568,192,066 internet users. 4.4% of that would be 25,000,450 users. Depending on what you're doing, leaving out 25M potential users might not be a good idea (again, depends on what you're doing).
- loup-vaillant 13y agoWell, it's not like a double margin would prevent them from seeing your text at all. They only lose out on pixel perfection. Leaving a few million users out of pixel perfection doesn't sound so bad. (And out of those millions, how many will actually stumble upon your web site anyway?)
- groby_b 13y agoI keep hearing this argument, and in most cases, it's invalid. For the average page, it's not 25M users but 4.4% of whatever the user base is. These 4.4% more might still matter, but the cost-benefit tradeoff looks much different now.
- darth_aardvark 13y agoIt's 4.4% usage rate worldwide. China is 22%.
