I've been saying this for years. My site only has a few lines of javascript. the rest is pure html and css, and it's very simple. https://tylerthrailkill.com
Your theme toggle is confusing, it shows the sun when the dark mode is enabled and vice versa
There was a thread elsewhere asking whether a toggle should show current state or the state desired. There was enough disagreement that it quickly became apparent that, whatever else the toggle does, there should be something external to the toggle showing the possible states, indicating which way to move the toggle regardless of toggle appearance.
The disagreement was actually all over whether the question was about a switch or a button, and so some people were answering as though it was a switch, and some people were answering as though it was a button - switches and buttons do indeed have opposite approaches usually (a switch usually shows the current state - such as "on" - but a button shows what action will be triggered by pressing it, such as "play").
Oops! I guess I wasn't paying close enough attention.
That's ok - a lot of people weren't.
