To all Internet Explorer users

[iAdam]

It affects me very much actually moreso than any other factor when working on the internet. In virtually every instance of web development developers have to cater specifically for Internet Explorer, otherwise their websites or web applications wont work, function properly, or look as good in Internet Explorer.

Well, when you're working as a developer, you should expect it and work around it. We'd all like to make our jobs easier but sometimes it just isn't possible and it's certainly not worth moaning about.

To call a dog a dog isn't moaning about it. IE is a horrible browser and it should be a lot better.

To create a whole thread moaning about it not supporting text shadows very much is.

I am not sorry to discuss how poor a product is when its manufacture produces the biggest most used user OS in the world yet their web browser doesn't support something all other popular browsers do and have for quite some time. Also text-shadow is the tip of the iceburg. There is many things, many many things, IE is inferior at doing in which every other browser can accomplish.

Developers are there to solve real world issues. Stop complaining or you're in the wrong profession.

I'm in no profession actually because I don't develop as a career or even for money.

At the crux of it, to those defending Internet Explorer unless you're a developer and experience how much pain Internet Explorer puts you through it's hard to really formulate a feasible reply to Internet Explorer not being bad.

Maybe the developers of the most used OS in the world are yano, developing the best OS in the world instead of reinventing what other people have done and is freely available in the world?


Funny how the iPhone is inferior at doing things which every other phone has done for years.

Maybe it shouldn't come with Internet Explorer then

Which, in the EU, it doesn't.
