Old browsers[edit]
Hi, Johan. I opened the links, but still can't find in any place a list of the browsers that are not supported any more. Could you fix, please? IKhitron (talk) 14:53, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- It's mainly PlayStation 3 and a long tail of different smartphones, and badly configured outbound corporate TLS proxies (see phab:T147202. I don't think we can list all of it in Tech News, but I added what I've understood is the overwhelmingly most common one (PlayStation 3). /Johan (WMF) (talk) 15:00, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you, Johan. Is there a way to check this for particular mobile? IKhitron (talk) 15:04, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- You could take a w:en:pcap using w:en:Wireshark and analyze it, I suppose, but that might be a bit overkill for this purpose. Maybe ask in Phabricator? But I want to stress that this will affect a very small amount of traffic. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 15:10, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- I see. I jst do not want bad surprises. IKhitron (talk) 15:12, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- I don't think you'd need to be worried. But I haven't done the research here, so I'm not really the one to ask. (: /Johan (WMF) (talk) 15:14, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
