I don't think the outcome will be like that, I think the outcome would be a lot of pissed of IE users who will have nothing but bad things to say about your website and about our FSF/GNU/Linux community. I tend to agree with the guy that said you should make your web site browser friendly for all. This shouldn't be a political or religious battle.
I don't think the majority of web users will be as empathetic as you think. Just think if you put a message like that on sourceforge.net a lot of folks coming to that site would probablly get really peeved that sourceforge was trying to make some sort of statement about a user's choice in browsers. Just live and let live... it's not that big of a deal. I'd say if your browser doesn't work right on a specific web site, write the webmaster of the site and let him or her know and if you don't get results start a petition and ask others to write to the webmaster as well. > -----Original Message----- > From: Robert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2001 1:47 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [newbie] MSN.com and MS in general. > > > Don't think of it as an "eye for an eye" but rather a passive > protest to the > shut out of non Internet Explorer.
