So someone sends me a link and when I get to the page I get this:
Really? You chose not to build first for the browser that 76% of people on the internet use? You chose to build for the browser that only 16% use?
Sure. It’s a hip and trendy tech-friendly 16%. And Firefox is a better browser. And Microsoft is evil. And etc. And etc. But as I’ve said before, you can’t be elitist if you’re wanting mass market success:
Yes. They’re using an inferior browser. They’re shopping at big box stores. They buy crap to eat. So build your website so it’s at least functional in a crappy browser on dial-up, stock your stuff at Wally-World, and put out a plate of Slim Jims and Twinkies.
If you want to succeed with the masses, you have to hold your nose and work with the masses.
