Netscape pretty much had its day up until about 1996-1997. From there IE was superior in so many ways, including compatibility, speed and stability. By the time the late 1990's rolled around, Netscape was "meh". Arguably, Netscape Navigator 3.04 Gold was the last decent/competitive version. From there, if you didn't use IE, you were an amateur. Those were the days...
JavaScript is the worst name for programming language ever. It is strange Sun didn't sue ECMA for this name. Microsoft would and they would probably win. It could be called e.g. WebScript or e.g. NetScript or e.g. SlowScript or e.g. CrapScript or e.g. VomitScript... all these names much better than JavaScript!
The Irony of Google using Microsoft’s bundling strategy with Android to kill IE is funny😂
Really is funny :)

The sleepy music and the monotone voice are funny 🙂
Internet Explorer's last version was 11, not 8. Also, you completely forgot about Legacy Edge, which was the original MS Edge.
I look forward to this video, I lived through this.
@11:37 JavaScript and Java are completely different technologies BTW
*edit* Great video !!
I lived through this as well the mid and late 90s were the wild west of the Internet 🛜

Apologies for the JavaScript mishap, glad you liked the video!!!
historical revisionist is just gonna disclude firefox
Love your videos
I appreciate your comment :)
the best use of edge is to download Chrome
Microsoft Internet Explorer didn't come with the original Windows 95
Yep, I said in the video it came in a separate expansion pack
I'm back to firefox. Chrome had become increasingly a piece of spy ware and does not support ad blockers as well.
Fair :)
11:31 Ah that is Java.
My apologies for the mistake :(
@@Tech_History_Channel No problem. I am liking your video. keep it up.
