                            </html>

If the above code is not working in your browser, then let's create our own logic to make the things blink.

Write our own logic for blink:

                        .my-blink {
                            animation: my-blink 1s steps(1, end) infinite;
                          }
                          
                          @keyframes my-blink {
                            0% {
                              opacity: 1;
                            }
                            50% {
                              opacity: 0;
                            }
                            100% {
                              opacity: 1;
                            }
                          }

You can add the .my-blink class to any HTML element to make it blink.

                        <meta charset="UTF-8">

                    </head>
                    <style>
                        .my-blink {
                            animation: my-blink 1s steps(1, end) infinite;
                            margin-left: 30%;
                        }
                    
                        @keyframes my-blink {
                            0% {
                                opacity: 1;
                            }
                    
                            50% {
                                opacity: 0;
                            }
                    
                            100% {
                                opacity: 1;
                            }
                        }
                    </style>
                    
                    <body>
                        <p class="my-blink">IDKBlogs is blinking</p>
                    </body>
                    
                    </html>
