What support? I haven't seen any real support for IE11 years - although I have long suspected they do try and cripple the installation.

When it says support, I guess Microsft means security updates.

For the average user user there's no reasosn to continue to use IE.

For me there is no reason not to use IE - along with Chrome, Firefox, and Opera.

I still use IE some, mostly for editing. I open an html file with IE, then click "edit" fixed in the toolbar at the top of the screen, which opens the source code in Notepad.

IE has also always had the best and most flexible accessability features, though Firefox has gained on it, and I now use Firefox for most general browsing. But I also occasionally use Opera and Chrome.

I haven't used Internet Explorer for a very long time.

I was aghast at how well 5 was when I upgraded from 4 and I used 6 for a while.
The whole trouble for me with Internet Explorer was having to write extra just for it, when regular writing was fine for all of the others.

I enjoyed the Presto rendering engine a great deal back when Opera was a thing.
In the beginning, Firefox didn't work at all like Netscape did, but Mozilla didn't really get any of the goodies that Netscape had, or if they did, Mozilla never bothered to incorporate the goodies.

The past is what it is however, and these days I'm rather fond of Firefox. Firefox has come a long way over the years. So much so that I feel it's being bogged down by far too many unnecessary writes. They just keep adding things to it.

Tho' I'm just not a huge Microsoft "anything" fan, I have been somewhat beholding to the new Microsoft Edge for .DEB of late. I've been messing about with it on my ProBook and so far it seems like I might be giving it a go on my much larger and faster Mint box.

I left Opera when they threw Presto to the rubbish heap, and I'll never use anything Google.

Browsers have seemingly become such a bore lately. Everyone is using Blink in the browser world, like everyone is using .DEB or .RPM ... so many forks ... so many plays and the same base code.

It's good that Microsoft is finally giving Internet Explorer a boot to the head .. long overdue IMO.

Chuckles ... those still running older systems won't know the difference.

Support expense, yeah, I can see letting that go---after all EOL for IE has been long announced and it's about time to finally kick in.
