Was this helpful? I don’t know. I haven’t had a chance to see the content yet, and I probably won’t.  @pepelsbey I absolutely love reading articles through the tiny 20px tall window between the cookie banners, fixed headers, newsletter modals and chatbot popups.  In Firefox, you can style the way a plain text response looks like by adding a `Link: <url>; rel=stylesheet` HTTP header. Sadly doesn’t work in Safari or Chrome.  My new post: “Querying the Color Scheme”. https://blog.kizu.dev/querying-the-color-scheme/ Media queries are nice, but for many things, we don’t even need them: there is this great #CSS property `color-scheme`, which allows us to make various things adapt to the current color scheme. We can even set it on a per-element basis. This post describes how we can use registered custom properties and style queries to read the current value of a `light-dark()` color for styling any non-color properties as well.

 @kizu I feel the same way about the linked issue proposing to change how `prefers-color-scheme` to work. I think I’d have to rewrite some of my CSS mental models if that were to change. Seems less harmful to either use the style query approach you’ve demonstrated or for that to develop into its own specific query. Also, seems like style query support for at least some non-custom properties worth revisiting.  @kizu ha, i was working on a post about color-scheme too. this just means i have to write fewer things 😁 and totally agreed on the media queries behavior: media queries should reflect the user's preference, not the author's (even if that's set in HTML). https://front-end.social/@mayank/112763009752291121  @kizu oooh I love your new (?) aside components! have you talked about those already? Little bonus @waveformpodcast today about ActivityPub and the Fediverse! If you're trying to understand what the heck the Fediverse is, we get... possibly a little too deep into it. But it's a fun one. Featuring some big names such as @evanprodromou , @mosseri , @mmccue and more. 🎉  @davidimel @waveformpodcast @evanprodromou @mosseri @mmccue If you'd told me the video was going to be used too I would've put more effort into cleaning up the room behind me 😅  Awesome episode @davidimel, y'all crushed it. Shoutout to @evanprodromou, @mmccue, and others for lending their perspectives. Back from our summer break we would like to invite you to learn about CSS4, CSS5 and beyond 📈, presented by the CSS-Next community group tomorrow ✨: It's finally here. Retcon is available now!

It all adds up to an unmatched mix of speed, and delight. Download the free trial now on https://retcon.app/, and save 25% if you buy this week. @Retcon Yearly subscriptions for those (small) support tools is a no-go for me. I’m happy to pay 30 bucks for a permanent license, and upgrade if future versions offer improvements I’m looking for. But yearly subscriptions for basic tools like git or diff/merge (hello kaleidoscope)?? No, thanks!   I have a birthday coming up in a few days, an anniversary even. My favorite bar is on vacation, my friends are scattered around the world… So, I decided to invite everyone to a livestream. August 25th at 12:00 Berlin time. Let's chat about everything. I suspect it would be mostly in Russian, but everyone’s welcome, really. Drinks are on you! It is *so cool* to see my colleague @jonsneyers’s years of work on JPEG XL, which I had the great privilege of shooting the shit with him about, pay off in various ways: https://www.idownloadblog.com/2024/08/22/iphone-16-jpeg-xl-rumor/ Some really good changes coming for default apps on iOS in the EU. My realization in 2024 has been that the DMA fork of iOS is the best iPhone experience. We can finally use our phones like actual computers with more default apps and apps from external sources.

 No, Apple still has to approve thrid party app stores and is still standing there between developer and user. There is also iOS standing in the way. Computers are not a certan set of features, they are universal, having ALL the features. To be a computer for the user you need to let it run any program, directly on the processor, not API layer of iOS.  By the way, the State of CSS 2024 survey is now open! https://survey.devographics.com/en-US/survey/state-of-css/2024?source=mastodon rad Firefox Devtools feature 👀 edit any clip-path shape visually  @argyleink so *that's* what that icon does. i've seen it so many times but never tried clicking it 😅 Surprised Apple isn’t asking for 30% of my business because I used a Mac to make the website.

 @robb @marioguzman Surprised Apple isn’t asking for 30% of my business because I use a Mac. (Actually more than one. Would it be 30% for each Mac?)  ✍️ For the tech writers: Google Docs now comes with more Markdown options. ✨ Now you can: - Format a doc with MD syntax (I do that all the time) https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2024/07/import-and-export-markdown-in-google-docs.html @stefan MD formatting is table stakes for me. Glad to see these changes in Google docs! |
@sindresorhus keep it in church.
@sindresorhus Never!
@sindresorhus now my workplace’s git pre-commit hooks replace all my code anyway.
Starting to think my decades long holy crusade was… silly?
