Should you use text-overflow in 2026?
Per Firefox 7, all modern browsers now support this property prefixless and you should use it. On unsupported browsers, it merely does not render the ellipsis, so we recommend that you do not use a polyfill. However, there is a jQuery plugin in the unlikely event of you needing one.
