The Curious Case of an Internet Explorer 11 Visitor in 2025
It’s late 2025 - you’d probably assume everyone browsing the web is on Chrome, Safari, Edge, or Firefox. And for the vast majority of sites, that is true. But recently we spotted a visitor using Internet Explorer 11 - the last major version of “IE” - and it reminded us that even discontinued browsers aren’t completely gone.
