Don’t believe everything people say — users secretly love ads, clickbait and top 10 lists. Data tells no fables. So if you need something to be noticed, any of the above will do. If you need to keep a low profile, do the opposite — simple really :-)

dmitriid: LinkedIn, “the world’s largest professional network”, cannot even imagine that people may actually know when they start at a new company. And that this date may in fact be in the future.

If reader mode fully takes off, then there’s no need to worry about styles in specific situations (articles). Offer some bare minimum semantic HTML and you’re good. Firefox’s reader mode wins hands down right now. Content before context.

Flexbox as a base layout is convenient but tricky due to CLS or “jank”. If the dimensions of the base flex container(s) are ambiguous, then the browser constantly recomputes the dimensions as HTML streams in.

My favorite trick is to give the browser dimension hints and avoid computational properties like flex. Set as many dimensions (width/height) as possible unambiguously. My Internet speed is sufficiently slow enough that I can see layout shifts in many sites, including my own (this micro blog).
