The immediate visual difference with Bootstrap is square corners vs rounded corners. Buttons and other components look strange after years of Bootstrap and its impact on web design. There is probably a few rules to edit to fix that, still... why having to do the work?
Anyway, I'll try to remember natUIve if a customer asks me to support old (but not so old) browsers.
Hi, thank you. That's one of the biggest problems with Bootstrap – a framework should not impose design on the creators.
The issue isn't just about old browsers. IE8 might not matter, but by supporting 10 years in the past you also make sure it will work 10 years in the future, following the standards. Simple, accessible HTML is under attack by the JS frameworks and most of the industry. When the framework du jour collapses under its complexity in 5 years, we'll be back to HTML.
