You thought the other two websites were minimalistic? They were just lazy. This is what peak performance looks like. It's dark mode by default because I respect your motherfucking rod cells. It uses system fonts because I'm not going to make you download a 4MB font file just to read my shitty opinions.
We declared 7 lines of CSS? Cute. I declared variables. That's right, CSS variables, motherfucker. Because we live in a society. And unlike those other sites, I didn't verify if this validates because I know it does. It's HTML5. It's semantic. It's accessible.
Why the fuck does every website blind you with a white background at 2AM? "Oh, but typography theory says..." Shut the fuck up. It's dark here. It's saving your battery. It's saving your eyes. You're welcome.
:root {

--text-color: #e0e0e0;
}
Look at that. Beautiful contrast. Readable. And it didn't take a 500kb React library to toggle it.
The other guys loaded Google Analytics? Sellouts. I don't care who you are. I don't care where you came from. I don't want your cookies. I don't want your local storage. This request happened, the server sent you some text, and now we're done. That's the internet, bitch.
This is satirical. But also, seriously, stop over-engineering your personal blogs. You're not Facebook. You're a dude with a keyboard. Act like it.
