I’m outraged, this website no longer works on Internet Explorer running on Windows7.
You’ve ruined my childhood.

Middle-click, or ctrl-click, or right click and choose “open in new tab”. Or on phone/tablet long click and choose “open in new tab”.

All to do with you. Your blog, your monkey in engine room

Tim’s blog and his published articles are read around world. Many will be on Linux, W2000, XP etc. Internet is meant to be for all, not just rich

Pcar, I may have dressed it in a joke but I really was accessing the blog on IE / Win7. Mostly because (despite its other horrors) I like the IE user interace.
It’s fair enough that updated websites shouldn’t bother with legacy “apps” but I note the Daily Mail still does.
Very popular, the Daily Mail.

Agree, stick with what you like
Yes, DM good for legacy, even W98. One reason it’s popular worldwide
Blogs are text sites, no reason to exclude readers by ‘modernising’ when modern features are not required. Security? It’s a blog not a bank. Nothing worth hacking
If it works don’t fix it

A thought – personally, I’m finding the heavy black lines separating the comments somewhat distracting, as they tend to drag my eyes away from the text.
Wot, still on edit feature?
Come on, Addolff.. The “No Edit Feature” is one of the charms of this blog… No Backsies… 😛
Steady on, Tim. Let’s not go crazy.
You should move to substack.
