Nothing but Chromiums support this, but it should be happening in the not too distant future: https://caniuse.com/css-anchor-positioning
Safari also has not yet implemented it and they want to wait for it to become stable then implement it.

I mean, the article starts by explaining the fact CSS anchors was pushed as a chrome feature. Only browsers that inherit from it by default will have this.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/anchor

The article doesn't mention that it's not supported by other browsers. The two things (pushed by chrome / unsupported by others) are not consequential.

If you don't clearly state it and people start using the shiny new thing you're hindering the few alternative browsers out there.

Or has it perhaps been accepted as a specification, but Blink-based browsers implemented it first?

Even as a suggestion that this is hardly pushed as a Chrome feature?
