ah fuck i realize it might be easier to drop it here to not get lost on the feed, but i have a gateway LT21, the one youtuber i watched got an MSI laptop that had like windows xp still on it, so it might be toiling ebay for cheap small laptops :thonk: (since mine is 15 years old bahaha)

i ... should figure out a theme swapper button but i have no idea where i'd put that on my site w/o making it even busier ... i think just the auto swap between dark and light mode is ok but thonk

imo i'd recommend making maybe a dropdown menu next to where u have ur fonts? or gather all of those options in a general "website settings" dropdown menu so it's less cluttered?"

ooh general website dropdown might work, i'd have to see how to get it to work with my font swapper so it can work together...
