Is browser prefix still required for linear-gradient? [duplicate]

Question

Do I still need to use the browser prefixes for the linear-gradient property?

background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #2F2727, #1a82f7);
    background-image:    -moz-linear-gradient(top, #2F2727, #1a82f7);
    background-image:     -ms-linear-gradient(top, #2F2727, #1a82f7);
    background-image:      -o-linear-gradient(top, #2F2727, #1a82f7);

I only want the support of latest browser versions. I tried following, but does not work.

background-image:    linear-gradient(top, #2F2727, #1a82f7);

Answer 1

According to Can I use, as of June 2017, 93.75% of Internet usage is on a browser that supports unprefixed linear gradients (97.2% in the US). For most people, this means you don't need to prefix your gradients anymore.

Below is the first compatible version and release date for the most common desktop browsers:

• IE v10, released September 2012
• Firefox v16, released August 2012
• Chrome v26, released February 2013
• Safari v6.1, released October 2013
• Opera 12.1, released November 2012

Information on compatibility history of other browsers (including mobile browsers) is available at Can I use.

Answer 2

You can now use:

linear-gradient

without prefixes and it will be supported by IE10+ as well as current versions of Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. For more detailed info see: http://caniuse.com/#search=linear-gradient

But short answer is: No prefix required.
