> But for a few sites it is very helpful to have some data, especially to see if there's an older article getting a lot of consistent traffic (I'll brush it up and make sure it's more current).
Usually my solution for this issue is to use people emailing me about things as a proxy of whether I should go back to something, and I think it works pretty well (though, I don't have the data to compare, ironically ;) ). If something's useful to many people but wrong/broken, eventually someone is nice enough to let me know. This has the benefit of making user consent very explicit, since they can choose exactly how much they want to "share" with me.
Also, I'm enjoying the @media(perfers-color-scheme: dark) support on your website! I usually call these out when I see them, since they're still rare, but it was before sunset when I first commented so I wasn't using Dark Mode then.
Ha, thanks for noticing! I enjoy browsing in Safari Technology Preview more often than not lately because more tech sites are starting to adopt a dark mode color scheme.
There are still a couple of bugs I need to work out with code display in a few spots (mostly because of some old color-unaware plugins I use), but it was pretty quick and easy; I wrote up my process here[1].
Yeah, this basically mirrors my experience converting my own website. I browse exclusively in Safari Technology Preview, so I'm always pleasantly surprised when I come across websites that support the feature (interestingly, it seems like Twitter has a dark mode implementation, but only on their mobile website (?!); their normal desktop website, which is the only place where this feature is supported doesn't have this).
