IE is not worth supporting at all. As you said, Microsoft stopped
supporting it 6 years ago, leaving it an unsafe and buggy mess. It doesn't
even follow Microsoft's own standards for web implementation.

For similar reasons, Android Webview is not worth supporting - it was
effectively (if not officially) EOL'ed, and Google has not supported it or
had it included in new devices for months. For phones where they're able
to, it was actively removed, and people were "forced" to use Chrome
instead. It functionally no longer exists as anything but a "legacy"
program.

(And as a side note, why didn't you upgrade your Win7 PC to Win10 when
Microsoft offered it for free?!?)

"Would you like another drink, sir?" asked the bartender.
"I think not," replied Descartes, and promptly vanished.
