If you're experimenting with Priority Hints, make sure to provide feedback (should get survey requests or send it to me directly). If you're holding back until it ships for realz, it won't unless enough devs try it out.
If you're not experimenting - why not and can I help?
Finally, remember that the @csswg publishes a list of stable modules to tell #implementors the current state of CSS, currently the "CSS Snapshot 2021": w3.org/TR/CSS/
#CSS Cascading and Inheritance Level 5 specifies everything from level 4, plus ‘layers’ that authors can create to represent element defaults, 3rd-party libraries, override styles, etc. w3.org/TR/css-cascade-5/

#CSS Cascading and Inheritance Level 4 defines the basic rules of propagating style properties & values to all elements. Plus the 'all' property and the 'unset' and 'revert' keywords.
w3.org/TR/css-cascade-4/
#CSS Conditional Rules Module Level 3: compared to level 2, the main extensions are allowing nesting of certain at-rules inside '@media', and the addition of the '@supports' rule for conditional processing. w3.org/TR/css-conditional-3/
All current #CSS specs have their own specific levels ranging from 1 to 5, but CSS as a whole does not have a version. Two reasons: 1) some features are easier to complete than others, 2) CSS became so big that it is too much work for the editors to maintain as a monolithic spec.
Today, we highlight the progress of three #CSS specifications on three levels: 3, 4 and 5! They are all in @w3c "Candidate Recommendation" status #timetoimplement

#Web#developers, please name bad habits to quit and/or good new behaviors to aspire to. Thanks! 👇
Thanks Léonie! Becky has done a great job, and I hope to be as supportive of the group's work. It's really exciting to have this opportunity to work with Janina and the whole team, to help everyone in the group, as they're working on important, and very cool, stuff!

#CSS Cascading and Inheritance Level 6 explores another way of grouping style rules: the ‘scope’. An old idea, but which poses lots of questions w3.org/TR/css-cascade-6/
