kratos4346y@M1sf3t Apparently they didn't, I saw Microsoft build 2019 some days back, and in her exact word:
"What we are "excited" to announce today is, Edge will offer, built-in support for internet explorer" -
@M1sf3t they did. And they are. It seems like the logic goes like this:
"Well edge is a failure, so chromium I guess. So we can stop developing it while still having some browser market share. So obviously we will kill IE. But then what about shitty webapps that don't work on a decent browser you ask?! Well edge will include IE as a "compatibility layer". Obviously we won't make it better. We haven't developed IE in years! But why not just keep shipping IE then? Stop asking questions you little shit. It's a new feature!!!!!" -
musician6656yHardly microsofts fault when huge companies around the world still rely on legacy software that only runs on ie.

They should ship Edge for free and ask for huge support money for the IE Layer, IMHO.

bols597746yI don't know if this is on topic, but my laptop has spent an inordinate amount of time updating over the past three days. Like, hours. Just earlier I restarted my laptop because response time wasn't just sluggish, it was catatonic. I've learned to never crash the computer if you can help it; so I held down CONTROL ALT DELETE a few times. After I got no response from the first couple of times I did it, I went on my software offensive, wh. consists of me addressing the laptop, saying such things as [my level of exasperation varies],Look, you reeking arsewipe from the 9th Circle of Satan's Nail Salons, I've had quite enough of your fuckery. Yes, I pretend that you possess a stake in your continued existence, but you don't. I'm holding C,A,D, like our couples counselor told me to do. But you're not holding up your end of the agreement. I can crash you if you'd like. I have..., " and suddenly, after a minute of this, the damn thing responds!
