Do you use CSS polyfills? Do they (or would they) help you adopt new CSS features more quickly? Or do you just wait for browsers to catch up?

@mia I barely use polyfills; I only use them when unavoidable. They are clever hacks that quickly get obsolete, add size, and usually are slower than alternatives. In fact, I avoid features that aren't equally implemented in all browsers, because they have an alarming tendency to be buggy or get dropped or deprecated. I avoid browser specific prefixes too, same reason.
