[ D.I.E. ] Death to Internet Explorer

Information




This is a club for all users @ MAL who Hate to use IE and use ANY other kind of browser to browse there anime, info, hentai (;D), or whatever you use it for :D


Browsers:

*Inactive or dropped | actively supported | just updated
Got more? New version came out?
PM me and i'll add update the list.



LETS BURN IE !! BRAWL!
Servey for most anticipated new browser in 2009



************D.I.E.'s News ************

In the previous article i gave some insight of what browser developers are working on to keep us happy. Today, I will give a more visual breakdown from the user's (not developer's like i usually do) point of view.

First up is JavaScript Core execution benchmark

Don't you just love the shape of it?

A more thorough JavaScript benchmark:


And my favorite

Add Latest Safari Alpha as 100%
I just love how opera has always been very compliant with standards. And it has more consistent look than even FF across OSs. If only the community would make widgets that are actually useful like what FF community makes, i would go back to using it (why do i want aquarium in my web browser and a half baked HttpHeader monitor).

Lets also look at global market share

(and i don't understand why data is so different over at http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

As for me, i am slammed with another program to make, for school this time, that keeps track of MAC addresses on our wireless network + more homework. So i will once again have a hard time finding time to work on my ideas for DIE :(

************ What others say ************

Microsoft admits IE is unsafe and users should be cautious while using it.

We all have issues: Firefox Myths. These are true, actually...

Usefull FF 3 features you may not have known

The U.S. government's Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) is warning Web surfers to stop using Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE) browser.

Top 10 new FF3 features + a performance test

We did it!

We set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloads in 24 hours. With your help we reached 8,002,530 downloads.

You are now part of a World Record and the proud owner of the best version of Firefox yet!

Don't forget to download your very own certificate for helping set a Guinness World Record.

************A tribute to IE***************
We all hate IE and thats a right thing to do but lets not forget that every evil has some goodness in it.
IE is an important browser. Without IE, we would never know what its like to have a bad internet browsing experience and good browsers like FireFox would not get the praise and a title of "the best" because they would just be ordinary good browsers. But with IE on the market FireFox truly shines: IE's existence makes all other browsers look good, even lynx (and yes, text-only mode looks better any day than what IE does with CSS and images).
Finally, without IE we would not know what a browser should not be and once again, FF would probably not be so great if its developers had no reference as to what they should not do. IE is a one stop place for referencing what a browser should not be."

Except if they're the one setting up the machine and something doesn't work. It's horror for people who won't even touch MS-DOS.

With distros like Ubuntu around that are very easy to set up and use, the whole "linux is only for technical people" line is a thing of the past.

Yuunagi | 11-16-09, 5:00 AM
I hope you're aware that using Linux is no walk in the park for, as my professor calls them, "lesser mortals" (non-technical people).

As Wikipedia successfully finished Encarta putting an end to almost 10 yrs of knowledge monopoly and capitalist imperialism, in the near future Windows' reign will soon come to an end too - its just a matter of time. I'm converting to Linux myself and I'm definitely not buying Windows 7!!! No way!

meneope | 11-15-09, 5:21 PM
I go further - I call for the DEATH OF anything MICROSOFT. I'm definitely not buying Windows 7 microsoft has gone too far this time - didn't even give me time to enjoy Vista (which itself sucks btw).

Funny club on MAL. Firefox has changed my life though.
