>lots of enterprise software was stuck having to support IE just a few years back

Yep, and talking about Jira, they only ended that support in March 2020.

And wow, according to Wikipedia, Microsoft still supports Internet Explorer on some non-consumer Windows flavors. Today. I find that actually pretty stunning, must be a huge liability to be running web-apps that breaks on non-IE, because that can't then be the only aspect at which it's still stuck in the stone ages.
