Edge, Chrome, Firefox and IE11 on Windows 8.1 and 10 all use HTML5 with TV Go not Silverlight, nor does the Windows 10 app use it.

It's only on IE11 on Windows 7 and 8 (not 8.1) and Safari on macOS that you need to use Silverlight with TV Go. I believe that's down to the streaming support in those browsers.
