!important, !important everywhere

Sounds like shopware
When did things go that wrong everywhere?

@ElToastGrande I don't know. But it's the only way I have to override the stuff of this shit they use. I'm a sinner, I guess

@magicleon I know, that's the same problem we have all the time, also forced to do this crap😐

@ElToastGrande at least I'm achieving a nice UI lol

Everywhere

This is especially frustrating to see in SASS, where if you're doing things right, you shouldn't every need it. I feel your pain

May I ask what !important is used for? I see it in a lot of rants/jokes...
I never used css except for basic stuff

@dmonkey basically, it will force a css rule that would otherwise be ignored.

@c3ypt1c Ok it always seemed to be "not important" but it's actually the opposite, right?

@dmonkey damn that's kinda of a plot twist.....

I nearly used it today. But then I just selected the ID and there was no problem.

@chzbgr what do you mean?

@chzbgr Haha! I nearly used an ID today but I chained 50 selectors and that was enough! :D

Today I nearly used an ID but instead I used selector and :not(selector) lol

@TheHanna I would beat those people with their own cutoff fingers packed in trash bag

@AlexDeLarge yes, it is, indeed it is.
After about two years of writing plugins I basically learned a lot about how to not do it :D

Reminds of the CIsco emails i used to get, it would have important in caps, in the subject of the email, and typically it was just an update on their tech nothing special.

Only reason i didn't add their domain to my junk filters earlier was because I signed for it at university and thought it'd be important.

But the ! inverses the important!

This usually hapens in overrides.scss file, when a developer is too lazy to do the fixes in appropriate file instead. When I see overrides.scss I usually take a deep breath before opening it.
