This is such an incredible story. Not just as someone who had to support IE6... Ok entirely because I was someone who had to support IE6. https://t.co/UgaSWFNp3V

Great blog post by @zacman85 that details how the YouTube team's decision to show a banner that IE 6 was no longer supported killed usaage of that browser.

Good to keep in mind as you see banners in Google Docs about Chromium Edge not being supported.https://t.co/TdySNpizJq pic.twitter.com/upA97jZnLi

Fascinating story from early YouTube on how they dropped IE6 support.

Something I kept expecting to pop up in this story but doesn’t ( which maybe a symbol of deeper issues) - Microsoft or the IE team reaching out to resolve this. Never happens!https://t.co/NALoGELtRo
A Conspiracy To Kill IE6 // a reminder that the IE team was downsized and doing only minimal security work. IE6 released in 2001 and IE7 wasn’t until end of 2006 having been reconstituted late in Vista.

YouTube engineers discussed at a coffee break how they could ship a banner announcing the end of IE6 support, and just did it in secret, initiating its downfall.
