Смысл: The main idea is that Internet Explorer's long-term market monopoly ended due to its failure to innovate and adhere to open web standards, allowing more agile and open-source-based competitors like Firefox and Chrome to gain ground.
Internet Explorer's market share dropped below 60% in 2010 as users shifted toward faster, standards-compliant browsers like Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
Смысл: The main idea is that Microsoft's dominance in the browser market is detrimental because Internet Explorer fails to follow W3C standards, and the company should either commit to full compliance or stop producing a browser.
Håkon Lie of Opera Software demands that Microsoft's Internet Explorer either adhere to strict W3C standards and Acid tests or exit the browser market.
Смысл: The main idea is that Internet Explorer's Trident engine was a pioneer of many modern web technologies, but its legacy was lost due to poor timing, lack of developer adoption, and corporate strategic mistakes.
Microsoft's Trident engine pioneered many modern web features—from Web Components to AJAX—only to be forgotten due to strategic errors and a lack of an ecosystem for knowledge sharing.
Смысл: The main idea is that enforcing the use of a single proprietary browser (Internet Explorer) is a self-destructive business strategy that alienates a growing segment of users and inadvertently supports the monopoly of Microsoft.
A company requiring users to use Internet Explorer is essentially sabotaging its own growth by alienating a large and increasing number of alternative browser users.
