Microsoft To Finally Shut Down Internet Explorer, Twitter Floods With Most Hilarious Memes

There is no denying the fact that the Internet has made our lives very easy and comfortable and it has also opened new horizons for us to increase our knowledge, make new friends and know more about the world. When the Internet entered our lives for the first time, the browser Internet Explorer (IE) used to play an important part. However with time, new browsers also came into the market and Internet Explorer got left behind as the new browsers functioned in a pretty fast manner in comparison to IE.

Slowly people started using Internet Explorer less and most of the time, it is used to download another browser. Now, Microsoft has announced that the support for Internet Explorer will shut down on 17^th August 2021 which means that the browser will stop working after that. What may have prompted Microsoft to take this step is the fact that in July 2020, only 1.3% of the Internet users opened the browser.

While there have been many memes on Internet Explorer and its slow functioning, the news of its retirement has once again given a chance to meme makers to have some fun. Twitter also doesn’t want to miss the chance of saying goodbye to the browser which had been their companion when they started using the Internet.

This is how social media users reacted over the news:

We may make jokes and memes on IE and enjoy but it won’t be wrong to say that its shut down will certainly bring an end to an era.

Goodbye IE!!!!!
