Internet Explorer is dead…finally! (haven’t we been saying this for years now…)

In Microsoft’s continual effort to kill Internet Explorer (smart move and long time coming), it has been sunset and today is D-Day. It has been permanently disabled via a Microsoft Edge update! Thank God! Plus all the visual references are dying June 13, 2023, which means the only place Internet Explorer will live is inside a VM, trapped in a fever dream. Where it belongs.

Now, can we please convince the diehards of outdated IT infrastructure in companies around the world to make a move on it? Hah, maybe in my wildest dreams.

I want to say I have fond memories of Internet Explorer, but I don’t. Never enjoyed any aspect of it. I was always an Opera user, Firefox user, Chrome user, Safari user, and all that other jazz. Dabbled with Vivaldi and Brave just a bit. Edge too, but only for Bing AI testing.

Now I’m on an Arc Browser exploration phase (finally snagged an invite) and it’s been fun. Maybe there is a new sheriff in town…????

Thank God for all the other browser choices. Happy to kick the old one out 🙂
