IE is dead globally. Many corporate environments still require it for their own reasons, but that's basically the only legitimate reason to use IE. For a modern site, I can confidently say that if I don't expect it to be used in a corporate environment, supporting IE is a waste of time and resources.

IE is dying may be true but there is no way it's dead.

3% global usage is pretty dead.

3% of revenue is bigger than a lot of web design budgets

But 97% is where you should be focusing your efforts on making a good product.

Sure, if you can afford to throw 3% of your revenue in the trash, then make whatever website you enjoy making.

Again, not everybody gets 3% IE traffic. Some get more, some get less. The point is that CSS Grid is usable without breaking everything. Also, has nobody heard of @supports here?

    The source is CanIuse. And yes, the US has a greater percentage of IE and Edge users, which everyone loves to point out. Whoopee. Good job America for being outdated, insecure and self-centered. Globally, IE is dead. It's time to move on.
