Ideally things should have labels also. The buttons work well but I'd default them to on if you do not label them. IMO it looks better with it on. The font change is a nice touch, it works well.

I don't think this creepy disposable microblog is important though, I'm using it to learn how to do stuff better in whatever project I work in the future.

I just learned alt="" is not just a fallback if an image doesn't load, but a main accessibility tool

As someone who studied this awhile with limited text: The font is fine. The purple on purple is bad. four uniquecolors is all you need to ensure no two ever touch. themes are a big win for vibes either way.

IMO: Add a second contrast color to each current theme to replace the background color. Then add a highlight color opposite of each for headers.

(don't look at my site for examples of accessible design. I intentionally designed my index to be invisible to colorblind people xD) sry for spam. neocities limits sux.

I've read about the font and on studies arial seems to preferable over those specialized fonts, I will think of a button just to change to it and increase lineheight. For contrast, do you think just decreasing brightness would suffice? I can add a hue rotate to the button too

I was reading how screenreaders work, and my inputs were hidden so because of that they would treat my labels as plaintext, so I made the inputs visible and positioned outside of the screen, and I put aria-hidden on all purely visual stuff (the ascii art and the input/labels for colors and hidden ascii art, also the error message if chatbox doesn't load and some other stuff)

and aria-label for a bunch of stuff as well, so a screenreader seeing // 202604061708 : won't read "slash slash two zero two six..." just "April 6, 2026 at 17:08", and also description for the inputs that actually matter... again, I don't even expect a blind person to find this site, I'm just using to learn how to make a site accessible

A lot of these changes are on the html side, which I can't help with: I am speaking only to supporting disabilities, not the code itself. Brightness alone isn't sufficient for enhancing contrast, you also need hue shift. No demand on any changes ofc, just offering tips as a dyslexic who is friends with colorblind ppl :)

Felt on so many levels

"I swear I don't live like this"

Hi I visited the site earlier and the template was all fucked up for a few minutes, I'd like to make a complaint.

like this? https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.asp unless you need an actual code editor bc vscode has an online version you can use

Obsidian if you host a web front end. VSCode has a web version with local plugin support that can do this. I'll consider adding it as a feature to helba.yorniq.xyz/dex for you when I have the time.
