We only do lead-gen websites, so it's not as difficult as say, a React app.
We support down to IE10 based on a combination of web analytics and what we can reasonably test in-house - for a typical site, we see it leaves about 2% of IE users (about 10-20% of traffic) out using that strategy - so maybe .1-3% of total users.
Over the past 4 years that I've been here, we started at supporting IE8, and when it dropped to less than 1% of IE traffic, we dropped it. We dropped IE9 for similar reasons, as well as the fact that some of the Google APIs like YouTube and Maps API aren't compatible with lteIE9.
We're less concerned about browsers like Amazon Silk, which is only .5% of traffic to begin with, and then heavily fractured from there. We also don't have a high percentage of developer users, so stuff like Brave and Opera are pretty rare.
