For me it's, as always:
css tricks flexbox
css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guid...
I've read and reread that article countless times, because I always need another subtlety from flexbox.

Typed css in my address bar and this was what came up... which was very recent.

css selector data attribute

I was trying to style elements given a data-id attribute on kedro-static-viz.

I was expecting something much more basic like how to add a gradient, or animation.

I was trying to improve page load times of my blog for slow mobile browsers and stumbled upon the font-display: swap property. It will display your site's text with a fallback font before any web fonts are loaded so your users don't have to wait!

Stephanie;
Thanks to you my CSS search history is fully under control, I'm not seeing any recent search history.

I now use your famous => box-shadow : 0 0 3px rgba(0,0,0,.28) recommendation. Thanks! I use Grid everywhere now, all my alignment problems are solved so far.

Oh wow, what a compliment!

Out of curiosity, are you referring mostly to ModernCSS.dev and DEV articles, or my egghead lessons too? ๐Ÿ˜Š

Something of the line of:

css grid image height

After Ana Tudor posted something on Twitter, I tried to solve the issue, but my solution worked on Chrome on Mac, but not on Firefox or Chrome on Windows :(

Fascinating! I just spent (too long) on it, interestingly your solution didn't work for me on Chrome on Mac ๐Ÿค” I will have to revisit this, an interesting problem!

Lately I've been searching for the least used CSS properties and what they are good for. I mean, did anyone ever used widows: inherit?

Oh no, I'm sorry you have a project where this is still an issue! Good thing IE has switched to Chromium, we're soo close to kissing IE issues goodbye :)

Unfortunetely IE will be around for 5 more years :( But indeed Edge being Chromium based makes one more browser less for hacks :)

my recent search was not directly linked to CSS but rather to the design. I always have trouble choosing the fonts for my project. I always ask myself should I use one font or two? how can I manage these fonts on my project ... ?

Uses of vmin and vmax. I hadn't heard about them before although I knew vw and vh.

Actually, I just realised I saw them in your last post. Thanks for that!

Still haven't figured out the "which ancestor..." thing. Was trying to figure out how to "uncrop" images posted to Twitter.

That and Wordpress and webfonts, I guess.
