A memorial plaque for Internet Explorer, styled like a gravestone. It features the browser’s logo at the top, followed by the inscription: “故 Internet Explorer 1995. 8. 17 ~ 2022. 6. 15. He was a good tool to download other browsers.” The plaque rests on a stone surface surrounded by small tribute notes, including references to other browsers like Firefox.

Fun fact, IE is still on windows 11, and it can be used though not through normal means. To any C#/.NET devs out there, on winforms the "browser" control is IE, and is still supported. Additionally some programs (like my company's ERP) still can and do launch full standalone IE under certain situations.

According to @rtxn@lemmy.world:

It gets better. PowerShell 5, which is still the default installation on Windows 11, aliases `curl` and `wget` to `Invoke-WebRequest`. The fucked-up part is that Win11 includes the real `curl` too, but the alias shadows it, and you have to use `curl.exe`. The even more fucked-up part is that `Invoke-WebRequest` **still uses Internet Explorer** to parse the result, and will panic if `-UseBasicParsing` is not passed every time, or IE isn't installed and initialized. I used to develop applications in PowerShell. I still wear the mental scars.

Oh man I'm still dreading the day that the backwards operated stuff in SAP GUI, made possible because of the IE engine, suddenly lose support.

I'm looking at you adobe interactive forms.

That shit is gonna cost thousands of dollars to migrate.
