Wow! This is a pretty impressive site. In terms of improvements:

  • I'm finding the transition between dark/light mode isn't the smoothest I've seen in other blogs, so I wonder if you can make it smoother
  • Clicking on the "about" link at the top jumps you down the page (which moves the direction of your big animated guy). I think if you switched this to a scroll effect (if that's possible) it would be better because you could see the guy swivel at the same time
  • I think you have a typo on your about section as well - "Desing sprint"

Thanks for you reviewing takes to long the switch ? Or it lags or something ? Nice idea about the scroll effect

This is what I see on Firefox:

It seems sort of laggy, or maybe there's not enough shades of colors going from white -> black

Very cool!

The biggest issue with your site is performance, unfortunately. The animations are very laggy/jittery, and my CPU usage immediately shot up:

It looks really neat but finding the dark-mode switch isn't easy. If you hadn't mentioned it I would never have guessed the bizarre grey squiggle thing enabled it.

Runs fine here on Safari!

Yeah it needs UX improvements
