After 25 long years, Internet Explorer is no more. Taking to their website, Microsoft announced that will be doing away with the old web browser to make way for what they describe as a faster and more secure browser - Microsoft Edge.
"Not only is Microsoft Edge a faster, more secure and more modern browsing experience than Internet Explorer, but it is also able to address a key concern: compatibility for older, legacy websites and applications," Microsoft said.

Meanwhile, social media users had this to say about the change:
@Xeahnotto said:
"The new Microsoft Edge is chromium-based so basically it's a Google Chrome with another skin."
@Mbulelo_Ndlovu6 said:
"Lmao but it's arguably the best internet browser right now?"
@Sibongakonkhe88 said:
"That browser has never let me down, I am partly who I am today because of that browser."
