Re:Firefox 46 supports some -webkit prefixed CSS properties on Wednesday April 27, 2016 @12:10PM (#11581709)
...what.

I don't think you understand how prefixes are used in the wild. Vendor prefixes re-inforce monoculture, they don't prevent it.

FWIW, these aren't actually enabled in 46 unless you flip the `layout.css.prefixes.webkit` pref to true.

(We hope to flip that to true by default soon: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1259345)

Re:Shiny Demos, new HTML5 showcase by Opera on Monday February 27, 2012 @11:20AM (#3639448)
Yeah this was just a soft-launch for MWC. We're planning a proper launch soon with more context for the user, proper feature detection, categories, etc.

The goal is to get something decent on all browsers--and we'll open the repo on github for those who want to help us get there.
