i have a question: is using the "@media (prefers-A: B)" for color scheme, contrast, and/or reduced motion ok?

Yep, very much so! Media queries are are SUPER helpful. They have their limitations, though. People might not know those settings exist, for one. My setup disables all animation for people with prefers-reduced-motion on. I also have a GIF toggle that lets people override it if they want to. I definitely plan to talk about media queries in future updates, I can ping you when I do if you want :3

This is actually really useful! My site is sort of nuts . . . but I try my very best to keep it as accesible as possible. This helps me understand what to do even better. Like adding keyboard functionality to everything . . . Now I gotta dig back into my javascript and do this. Keep up the important work!

Is it okay if I link you on my site (my site is psychological horror heavy I know not everyone is comfortable with that)

oh! i hope it's not too weird, but i have a few accessibility centric uhh "snippets" of code if they're helpful for resources? i have a marquee replacement one ( https://salarua.neocities.org/misc/accessible_marquee/ ) and my navbar was also made to be WCAG compliant in mind :'D ( https://github.com/NickDJM/accessible-menu )

heads up best website on the Neocities that everyone needs. As a disabled person, I just wanna thank you a lot for all the advice and tips you have : I am in process of remaking my website and rebuilding it with more accessibility from ground-up, and there's very little guides on that! I might be able to restore credits to most stamps you have on your page btw (I am an avid collector) :] should I use guestbook?email?

(also, I'm not sure if you thought about including it or not but I feel like it'd be awesome to have a mention of content warnings as part of accessibility measure! as a person with PTSD, I rely on these a lot ^^) thank you for your wonderful wonderful work!!!

your website is cool! I love the simplicity and the yellow-purple pairing is one I don't see often but it works really well with pastels.
