deflox656y@starrynights89 Well I don't. I just display a friendly message that the user should switch to a better browser.

c3ypt1c99056y@dontbeevil it's like a horse that should be dead but is alive and we're still beating it.

@starrynights89 I don't even test for IE "inside the enterprise".
When I descend into the dark pit of styling (as a backend dev), I use Firefox on my laptop.
Before making a PR on our repo, I load up the branch in safari on an beaten-up iPhone 5, and in Android browser on an even older Motorola Defy (480p, Android 2.2).
Not browser simulated, just real SHITTY phones. I figure if that works, it's good enough. -
@bittersweet As a JDBC backend dev I can understand the sentiment. I only test my stuff on Chromium or Firefox, if it works on Blink and Gecko it should be fine everywhere.

@starrynights89 Yeah and I've noticed that most stuff "not working" for our customers is more about broken media queries / mobile scaling than about actual browser differences.
