After much effort, I successfully created a posts list layout using CSS flexbox, but the masonry layout for post blocks still eludes me.
In the code snippet provided below, you'll notice that while the first post achieves full width as intended, the subsequent posts align equally instead of creating a masonry effect.
I am seeking guidance on how to implement this desired masonry layout using CSS flexbox.
For more information on using multi-column layouts in CSS, check out this resource: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Columns/Using_multi-column_layouts
The CSS Multi-column Layout Module allows for the creation of multiple columns of text within a block layout. This is particularly helpful as long lines of text can make reading challenging. By utilizing limited-width columns placed side by side, akin to newspapers, readers can maintain focus and readability.

With a few key CSS rules, a print-inspired layout that adapts to different screen sizes can be achieved. Similar to how a newspaper adjusts its columns as the page size changes, web layouts can automatically balance and flow content naturally across various devices.
Below is a code snippet you can use to test behavior:
/* Box Sizing */
* {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
}
*:before,
*:after {
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
/* Post Layout not Using Flex */
.post_layout {
column-count:2;
column-fill:balance;
border:1px solid red;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.first-post {
transition: .8s opacity;
border:1 px solid green;
}
.col-6 {
transition: .8s opacity;
border:1px solid blue;
margin:5px
}<div class="first-post">
