Microsoft 365 apps to end Internet Explorer support next year:
Internet Explorer's days have been numbered since Microsoft launched its Edge browser five years ago. Microsoft appears to be another step toward closer to retiring the web browser with the announcement its Microsoft 365 apps suite will end support for Internet Explorer 11 on Aug. 17, 2021, the company said Monday.
Users of Microsoft's Teams chat and collaboration service will lose IE 11 support a bit earlier, on Nov. 30, Microsoft said in a blog post. Microsoft also said it would end support for the Microsoft Edge Legacy desktop app on March 9, 2021.

IE 6 was the pinnacle of Microsoft's Internet "career."
I remember the guys that did front-end for web apps in those days. Fuck "the standard," IE6 is the de-facto standard.
Of course, they were called "web designer" (or some such), we saw them as buncha tech hipster wanna-be programmers - javascript wasn't so endemic as it is today.
