A few top-level comments from Lobsters, shortened. Read the full thread on Lobsters.
that’s only a joke, i mention later i don’t like how I’ve done the button and plan to change it there’s also [this post i linked](https://lea.verou.me/blog/2026/dark-mode-toggles/) going in depth about whether such functionality is even necessary, it’s been a hot topic in the web world but sure assume the worst of me!
Opened the page, got dark mode, looked good, very readable; haven't clicked the button. I trust it works :)
