What does that mean for you? I'm slowly going about the same. Which products are you replacing with what, and which are great/meh? Anything particularly hard to give up?

Gosh, I was not ready for that transition between wide and web.

Also, I cant believe you did 7 conferences in one year. Thats a lot. Like, makes my skin crawl, a lot.

Also also, thanks for everything you do. You make the Internet a better place. Hope you're taking care.

CSSWG in discussions to make this easier with the @supports competence flag

And until competence gets broader browser support, you can check
if (window.competence) // do stuff

Or use a shim

Yeah, that's where my mind went, but didn't consider it in the context of publishing 3rd party libs. I bet that solves so many headaches

When do you find yourself using this? I love the approach, but I feel like I've only used symbols a handful of times.

Love that you share these. Don't love how your current circumstances sound. Sending love and well wishes that things will improve soon :)

Huh! Never thought of that. I'll have to give it a go. Thanks :)
