I don't think his kid needs to worry about supporting old IE.
- sago 11y agoReally? You don't think his kid's peers might not have the latest IE at home? Lot's of them will be on mobile, true (though some of them will be on Android's pre 4.4 browser, which also doesn't support it fully), but if they want to check from school, then school machines are neither likely to be the latest, nor the most diligently updated. I wasn't trying to be a smartarse, I wish flexbox was usable. But IE < 11 is still a very large player.
- cstejerean 11y agoIt isn't a very large player. Most websites will not see anywhere near 25% of IE < 11, even though that may be the global distribution. Even some of our most conservative enterprise clients have upgraded to IE 11. I'm not entirely sure how Microsoft pulled this off, but I'm impressed at how quickly they are pushing everyone to a modern browser. If you start a new project today, there is almost no reason to care about IE < 11. By the time you get enough users that IE itself becomes a sizeable number, I am willing to bet that IE < 11 will be around 5% of users on the high end.
