The person who wrote this post is incredibly creative. Every one of these is more interesting than 10 google tools. I guess thus is the rule of industrial tools, that is, to minimize surprise.

I admit this is neat tech but I am not looking forward to the monstrosities that are going to result. I'm hoping there will be (already is?) something that could translate anything into a stripped down minimal-effect version. Like reader mode but universal

Would changing your usercontent.css or uBlock Origin filter to set all select appearance attributes to auto help? There are some challenges, like the custom style could hide elements, but I think that should give fall-back equivilent styling.

This is still better than currebt monstrosities because the underlying select should still be an actual select (including keyboard navigation etc.)

Incredibly cool - and since it’s a native element, it cleanly falls back to just a normal select on e.g. iOS.

Customisable selects are not supported in Firefox.
