Hi there, I read your accessibility post and I noticed the same. I'd like to join the Accessible Net directory along with my other site (scopefilter) which meet the vast majority of the criteria EXCEPT a light-dark toggle. I realize this kind of toggle is useful but the sites do respond to native High Contrast modes in Windows to switch the colour scheme which I hope is enough until I have the chance to code it.

The other thing I wanted to add with the accessibility post which is something I've noticed, and I actually find very disorienting is how a lot of people's websites change layout from page to page. But I was thinking of making my own a11y post at some point so I guess that's one of the things I'll mention :) really like your site design btw (Also the Punk Wasp link in your blog post doesn't lead to a blog post)

Hello this is my other site! :3

You actually don't need to code a toggle! A simple prefers-color scheme light/dark media query with some colors switched around works fine :> I provided some links on how to do it underneath that guideline, kalechips shows how to do it quickly! https://kalechips.net/stuff/snippets?p=darkmode

Thanks! Took awhile for me to figure out why it wasn't working but Kalechip's code doesn't work unless you enclose the :root {} inside the media query... which is what they've done on their site. You can use the Dev Tools which has a Light and Dark mode switch to test if it's working.

Hey Frills, thanks for the follow! Your site is a sight (ha) for sore eyes, and I really like your accessibility pages (the link to the article Web accessibility: People or profit? rings true).

Heya! No worries. I am here for everything your site stands for. That article resonates right? Particularly the bit about 'Accessibility advocates often feel that they must present their case for accessibility with a capitalistic flair.' is sad but true

For sure, almost every accessibility lecture etc I've watched has to frame it in terms of Accessibility will improve your bottom line because it will increase traffic to your site which equals more money.
