| Mar 5, 2014 at 11:57 | comment | added | Oded StaffMod | "Why gratuitously break it without any new functionality" - we didn't. Or at least, not intentionally. And non of us who tried are able to reproduce the breakage either - it is clear some people are having problems (IE 8/9/10), but others, using the same browsers, are not. I would love to get down to the bottom of this and get it sorted out for everyone. //cc @Drew | |

| Mar 5, 2014 at 3:16 | comment | added | doppelgreener | @HLGEM: It actually takes a significant amount of resources to support older versions of browsers, and comes with significant loss of ability to provide the best features for people keeping up with versions. This isn't a matter of just wanting to support the newest. | |
| Mar 4, 2014 at 21:50 | comment | added | Cyberherbalist | @Stijn : I happen to be a dev and have privileges of installing whatever darned software I want to install (they trust us not to be stupid - a dubious proposition I will admit). So for the sake of making sure my stuff works everywhere, I have every browser from IE to Opera and even Sleipnir. Most of the non-dev people in my organization do not have this privilege, and don't have admin authority on their own machines. | |
