My website!

flamebyrdI've been working on re-doing my website since the start of the year, but because there's no pressing need or firm deadline it's been sitting at 95% complete for months.
So, here it is: https://random.fangirling.net/
If you use any of my scripts regularly and have the time/inclination, please take a look at the versions here and let me know if you have any trouble: https://random.fangirling.net/scripts/
I've also made backup copies of all my fanworks from AO3 to the site: https://random.fangirling.net/works/
I'm using PicoCMS, which is easy to use as promised, but as with all such things the exception is when you want to do something they didn't plan for. Using Markdown for my content is a nice compromise between having a WYSIWYG editor and writing plain HTML (but I can still write plain HTML if I want to!).
I added a light mode/dark mode toggle, but only on desktop - on mobile it defaults to how you have your device set. I'm planning to add a toggle button for mobile once I figure out a good place for it. (Because I want to support IE10+ and thus could not use CSS variables this was a bit of a headache, but I think I got there in the end... Although on reflection I think I only tested in IE11. Hmm.) Anyway, I don't use dark mode myself so tell me if these colours are good for you if you do!
As always I try for screenreader compatibility and general accessibility, so feedback on that is also welcome.

And I've added a redirect to remove all trailing slashes for better SEO (lol).
