  XP is very far from being dead. It would be interesting to see the OS statistics on OzB.

      And even those XP users could switch to Firefox instead of using IE.

        Chrome 6 and later support SNI on XP

        @fruit: Chrome is no longer supported for XP. Chromium might be though.

      I knew it wouldn't be at the bottom. I was expecting Vista to be higher than Win8 though.

      What are the stats for IE on XP?

      • 

        neil on 05/05/2016 - 15:26

        Analytics can only break down what version of IE you are using but not the OS (afaik).

        87.79% of Internet Explorer users are on IE 11.

        Actually, I figured it out.

        Windows XP users:

        • Chrome 61.67%
        • Firefox 33.01%
        • IE 2.87%

        And Windows XP browser version:

        • Chrome 49.0.2623.112 34.08%
        • Firefox 45 23.01%
        • Chrome 49.0.2623.110 13.55%
        • IE 8 2.77%

        … other IEs:

        • IE 7 0.07%
        • IE 6 0.01%

        @fruit: Yes, but of how many?

      Hang on, so nobody's using Windows 98??

      •

        Windows 98 doesn't really support modern browsers, you might be able to use a very outdated version of Firefox or Opera browser but it's very unstable.

        I know people still using it. Not for the internet though as it's unusable.

  All the operating system discussions aside — no one actually pointed out that OzBargain blog is already in HTTPS?!

  We are using Let's Encrypt at the moment which is troublesome with its 3 months expiry. Might get a proper certificate later. We have been using SNI for the last 2 years. SNI does not work for IE users on Windows XP (however Chrome or Firefox users are fine), nor Android 2.x users — however I don't care much about that.
