CSS one-liners with potential high-value gains hyphens: auto; to achieve a better visual balance where needed 🤌 (other constraints that you might not be able to control, etc.)

How does it play with text balancing (text-wrap: balance | pretty)? cc @ishadeed.com ishadeed.com/article/bala...

yes – it's not appropriate for every use case text-wrap: balance/pretty will get the job done in most cases 🤏 but sometimes you jus' need to condense some text within given constraints and for unknown scenarios p.s not looking for unsolicited opinions, merely sharing awareness of "hyphens"

Tbh prefer the words not hyphenated. I imagine there’s some a11y lens here too which would agree.
