"Hey all, just wanted to share a wild find I stumbled upon today. I was optimizing some CSS for a site and I used the wildcard selector ' *' to target every element with a certain attribute, and it worked like a charm - but now I'm curious, has anyone else played around with this and if so, what are some use cases where it's a game-changer?"

"Lol @ wildcard selectors. I was just dealing with those yesterday and I have to say, they can be a real pain to work with, especially in complex layouts. Has anyone found a good trick for avoiding specificity issues with those?"

"Just skimmed the article and gotta say, wildcard selectors can be super powerful when used right. Anyone have experience using these in production sites?"

Just had the chance to try out the wildcard selector and it's a real game-changer for simplifying some of my stylesheets. Made it way easier to target all my header elements in one swoop. Has anyone else had a chance to experiment with it?
