      1. With the switch of @MicrosoftEdge to Chromium today, all major browsers now show invisible text by default during web font load. This marks an end to a 12-year trend started by WebKit in 2008. First picture is Edge 18, second is Edgium 79. Full history: zachleat.com/web/fout-foit-history/

      @MicrosoftEdge While my personal belief is that the default change is a downgrade, Edge does now also support both font-display and the CSS Font Loading API—a *huge* win. Definitely a net positive on the font loading front!

    @MicrosoftEdge I’ll just say this explicitly in case it wasn’t clear: If you’re still using a web font loading polyfill, you can now make a clear-cut case to retire and remove that code 👍
