I hadn’t realized that user stylesheet support had ended. I feel like I should bemoan the loss of user control, but in reality, few people used them.

I think Safari on Mac OS has them. If not, what’s https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/advanced-ibrw1075/mac meaning where it says

“Style sheet

To use your own CSS instead of webpage style sheets, click the pop-up menu, then choose Other.”?

Correct. And the cool part is that it loads the file straight from disk. However it offers no Stylish-like UI
Thanks for the link! Adding this to the list of corrections I need to make to the Medium post
Still there in 14.1.1...
$20 says Google removed the feature from Chrome, so a chunk of developers consider the feature 'dead', because to them "Browsers = Chrome".
They definitely still work in Firefox, but you have to toggle a pref in about:config.
I bet there are browser extensions that fill this gap.
Yep, the first style manager extension was released in 2005 (Stylish). Style manager extensions are a much more frictionless way to manage and share styles

The WebExtensions API has APIs for injecting styles: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/Web...

Stylish was also found to be malware. This is the problem with extensions over browser features. You just can’t trust them with such critical data.
I currently use a user style sheet on the latest version of safari
