@dylanbeatt.ie maybe I'm suffering from the Mandela effect, but haven't you posted a video somewhere about AI being good at programs but not products? I'm trying to help a fellow dev in an existential crisis, but I can't find it…

@bram.us I finished writing something about how color scheme switching should be a browser control just to discover you wrote the exact same thing in 2022. :P Any news about that since then?

Dark mode toggles should be a per-site browser preference, just like zoom. Why are we still reinventing the wheel with JavaScript? Let's make dark mode a browser-native feature. bit.ly/dark-mode-is...

ERRATA: It should be "Let's make dark mode *switching* a browser-native feature." At least this proves I'm not AI. 😅

@nerdy.dev @syntax.fm @kevinpowell.co I'm sorry for the spam, but I just wrote a piece on why we should stop writing dark mode switches and I'd like to know your opinion (and maybe some help getting this to people who could act on it). bsky.app/profile/did:...

@kevinpowell.co I'm sorry to bother, but I'd love if you could take a look at this thread: bsky.app/profile/feld...

@nerdy.dev @una.im @bram.us I need help with something. I'm trying to use `@media (hover)` in production code for a few years but I always have problems with Samsung and some Xiaomi phones. They always report as having hover. (1/?)

(3/?) This is a know bug that affects a huge amount of phones since 2019. For comparison, Samsung + Xiaomi have more market share than Apple globally. Yet, @media(hover) is still being used on every demo under the sun and evangelized as the right solution. Honestly, I'd love if that was the case.
