Hello!
I noticed that the mobile browser compatibility matrix[0] is a little dated (last revised March 2017). I don't know how we formally decide to update it so I'd like to propose the following version bumps given the last year's metrics cited on wiki[1-2]:
- iOS: modern 8 -> 11; basic 7 -> 9 - Android: modern 4 -> 6; basic: 2 -> 4 - Windows: basic 8 -> (remove OS column) - Blackberry: basic * -> (remove OS column--it's unclear if star means all or none)
Additionally, I propose the following changes:
- Replace "Basic" terminology in the OS table with "Basic (Grade C)" for clarity - Drop "unknown" rows from OS and browser tables as there is no unknown column for OS or browser, which is inconsistent, and they're also unused
Some of these changes are a little bolder than usual but would help focus development, design, testing configuration, and the conversation towards the future. I sincerely apologize if I've offended anyone.
Stephen
