Talking aobut this: ▶ something

The only way I know of would be through JavaScript, you could probably run an event that looks for a details tag and adds the attribute ‘open’ to it. Something like this: $('details').attr('open','') Figuring out the right event to fire that on, is a different question.

Is JS still the “easiest” solution at this point?

Is there a way to expand collapsed text by default?

Not that I am aware of, no.
