@desandro Hi Dave! It's good to see you here. I've been a fan of your work for years. > In my experience, the vast majority of users want uniform column width. CSS grids provide so much power over layout with track sizing. I think that amount of customization over the tracks is an unwanted feature when working with masonry layouts. Typically with a masonry layout, you want the item to have the same size regardless of its position in the grid. So, if you want to be practical, go with display: masonry, this will satisfy 95% of masonry layout usage. By "users" do you mean us devs using the feature? The reason I ask is because the main reason I (as a dev) didn't use the JS plugin back in the days on many websites was _because_ it forced me to set a uniform column size when I wanted more flexibility and freedom to get creative. I believe that even though the masonry layout is traditionally known for uniform-width columns, non-uniform columns are very appealing. And sticking with uniform widths means that the layout will not be as adaptable to different use cases anymore. -- GitHub Notification of comment by SaraSoueidan Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10233#issuecomment-2081009312 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
