Seems like a caniuse alternative. Never heard of this until now.

    Sure yes. Just like caniuse https://caniuse.com/flexbox https://caniuse.com/flexbox

Great site for keeping up on the latest features added to Chrome and other browsers. There's some really esoteric stuff which I'm sure is critical for very specific use cases.

Middle-clicking on individual feature links to open them in a new tab is broken. Given that these are real `<a href="/features/foo">` links, and the URL is exactly the same for broken and not-broken, I've no idea how they managed that. (Firefox)

  Command-clicking a feature name to open a new tab is also broken on Firefox on MacOS, but only when ublock origin is enabled. Repro by: - Visit https://webstatus.dev/ https://webstatus.dev/ - command-click the words "font-size-adjust", the name of the first feature, to create a new tab with the URL https://webstatus.dev/features/font-size-adjust https://webstatus.dev/features/font-size-adjust Expected: the new tab opens shows the usability details about this feature. Actual: the new tab shows the text "Error when loading feature font-size-adjust." Refreshing the tab shows the expected content after a flash of unstyled text Notes: this only happens when ublock origin is enabled for the domain. Turning off ublock origin for the domain and then attempting to repro with the given steps results in the expected behavior.

Never trust anything built by Google/Chrome when it comes to listing web features. Same here: "web platform status" lists multiple Chrome-only non-standard features claiming they are "limited availability"
