Sorry to see internet regressing to Internet Explorer days.

Edited to add: This is the message I get when using Firefox.

For what it's worth Firefox has a bug open to implement some of the core CSS features being used here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1950366

Not really, Internet Explorer was single platform and closed source.

Internet Explorer was certainly closed source, but it ran on many platforms.

It was popular on Mac Os (classic and X). It was also released for Solaris and HP-UX.

Internet Explorer on Mac was a completely different rendering engine (Tasman) to Windows (Trident). The only that was the same was the name.

(I swear at some point my brain will run out of space because it’s full of useless things like this.)

It was suffered on these platforms, because even IE for Mac didn't grant the 'compatibility' with 'web pages' designed for IE.
