IE10. I do have Mozillar Firefox too, but I prefer the older IE. I only use Firefox for those sites I visit that no longer seem to support IE10.  |

I tried IE11, but didn't like it so went back to 10. Firefox is a bit better, but I hate all those stupid tab things they have on browsers these days.  |

So... 3 1/2 years later and no visible progress. The Brexit thread was young but already in full swing when this thread was started.
Will the forum software ever be upgraded or are we stuck with the current clunky and insecure version until the end of time? Enquiring minds need to know.

I did move your question to the biggest admin of ours, you can, of course, privately ask EB as well.

So - it definitely is on "to do" list, good news. When they get to it, they get to it.

Had to roll back to the old version again. Now moved on to Discourse. | Quote: | | | | | *shudders* | | | | | Well, that was 2016.  I use Edge now and Firefox.
