I dislike the examples here where the "old" way works in all browsers, but the "new" way only works in Chrome/Edge. IMO, it's irresponsible to include such examples, since it makes the Blink monoculture worse.

Agreed; wish the default filter was "newly available" since that includes all 3 major browsers (Chrome/Edge, Safari, Firefox) but still includes new stuff that isn't "baseline" yet.

This site shouldn't be the one to blame. Instead, we should probably ask Mozilla to be more standards-compliant.

  • This is an experimental feature. Not part of the standard yet .. imho.. shouldn’t be included (yet)

Sometimes I'm developing an internal tool or something only for myself / handful of people. I'm perfectly fine saving time and complexity using a one liner modern CSS solution instead of having to rely on some hacky unreadable code to support 10 years of legacy browsers.
