RE: We have a slider! What does it do?

in #steemit9 years ago

Well, a lot of people actually... and if you want to get mainstream you cannot ignore it... there have been other bugs I have noticed with IE11 specifically on Steemit.

Here is a random stats to get an idea on recent browser usage percentages: https://www.w3counter.com/globalstats.php

Sort:  

I was just teasing :)
I actually know the stats because I worked for a start-up last year and we optimized for browsers and they were having a hard time with IE. Me, always the joker, said they shouldn't bother, that IE is DEAD and they showed me these stats.
We spend a few awkward seconds silently staring at each other in disbelief...as i am now :)

It is not that I don't use other browser, I have just dedicated my otherwise useless IE11 for using it only for Steemit while FF and Chrome I use for different things... and now I need to switch just because it won't let me vote with IE. :)

I never understood people who use more browsers, can you give me one example in which this is useful?

It depends lot on the person. I for example use a lot of browser windows with a lot of open tabs and Firefox becomes laggy and crashing often if you have multiple dynamically refreshing tabs open for long... so Facebook and Twitter go in Chrome, the other 150 tabs in FF. And a Whole IE11 just for Steemit stuff... I also need to test some stuff in different browsers for compatibility, so I need to have them available anyway, might as well use then to my advantage :)

PS. Now I notice that comment nesting is broken as well, I get a Reply to your last comment, but cannot actually post, while I don't get to Reply myself in the previous level (like it used to work), so I need to go a level up... that one does not seem to be an IE bug.

On this comment I actually see a Delete button next to the Edit one... WTF!

Tried a lot of plugins this one included, once FF hits about 2GB of memory usage or more it starts acting up...

The Delete button has disappeared from the upper comment once you replied and now I see it available for this one, afraid to try it though... :)
