New blog post for the kind of nerds who spend their Friday afternoons thinking about color themes joshcollinsworth.com/blog/in-defe...

joshcollinsworth.comIn defense of two-state theme togglesThere's a lively debate going on over whether theme toggles should have two options (light/dark) or three, with an added "system" option. I maintain two-state toggles are better in most cases (though not all), and that the case for a third option rests mainly on problems most users don't actually have.

Nice. While we’re talking about usability…the massive View Publication button not going directly to the article is objectively insane.

I know that’s not your choice. But another example of technicality getting in the way of usability.

Yeah...I jumped through all the hoops to have that thing set up, but honestly, I don't really like it that much. The wording and functionality of the button both seem weird, at least in my case.
