What does the user of IE8 lose?

Question

Browsers

What does the user of IE8 lose? And what limitations does a developer face with supporting an older browser?

Answer 1

There is no need to convince the customer with the goodies of new browsers. You just need to take a sober look at the approximate statistics of his target audience. If there is Win XP, Win Vista, then IE8 is also there.
Just be patient, sooner or later evolution will push IE8-11 out of the market.
In addition, no one forces you to repeat all the most modern effects for IE8, for example, all sorts of fillets, shadows, animations. All this can be safely done in CSS3, even though IE users will not see it. The fact is that for them this is a normal picture, all the sites that they see behave just like that. The principle is called graceful degradation.
