I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but IE11 has reached its EOL.

I believe it was a joke

Interesting that even after its EOL, we're still not sure if IE was a joke or not

While this is pretty nice the title is incorrect (as others mentioned because of the sprite images).

Very cool indeed. What things CSS can do in the hands of an expert these days is seriously impressive. EDIT: Cohost seems interesting... if anyone has an invite that would be lovely. Email is in my profile here.

I've been trying out Remotion to make videos in React and my mind is blown. Utilizing CSS (filters,translations,blend-modes e.t.c) has made me more proficient than I ever was in After Effects

author here. the website that hosts this is a new social media website that allows a limited amount of html (only inline css, no js or elements), and a small subculture/arms race has developed to see who can make the wildest thing under those restrictions.

I didn't know about about cohost. How does one go about getting an invite code?

What's supposed to happen? All I get is a static image and a progress bar across the screen...

That is awesome!

Kudos!

Reminds me of Stu Nicholls' site http://cssplay.co.uk

Most of the stuff is "curiosity-only," but awesome, nonetheless.
