The CSS rules visibility:hidden and display:none both result in the element not being visible. Are these synonyms?

Display:none hides the element from the page, and the space it would take up on the page can be used by other elements. visibility:hidden hides the elements, but it continues to consume the space it normally would.
visible: It is used to specify the element to be visible. It is a default value. hidden: Element is not visible, but it affects layout.
What is the difference between display:none and visibility:hidden ? display:none hides the element from view and removes it from the normal flow of the document. visibility:hidden will hide the element but maintains the space it previously occupied.
The visibility: hidden style behaves like a combination of opacity: 0 and pointer-events: none . Regarding the accessibility, opacity: 0 is the only property which makes the element accessible in the tab order, and the element's content can be read by screen readers.
display:none means that the tag in question will not appear on the page at all (although you can still interact with it through the dom). There will be no space allocated for it between the other tags.
visibility:hidden means that unlike display:none, the tag is not visible, but space is allocated for it on the page. The tag is rendered, it just isn't seen on the page.
For example:
test | <span style="[style-tag-value]">Appropriate style in this tag</span> | test Replacing [style-tag-value] with display:none results in:
test | | test Replacing [style-tag-value] with visibility:hidden results in:
