Upgrading my blog to latest Bootstrap 5.3.x and I'm glad to see that they have finally introduced the usage of CSS variables https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/customize/css-variables/ to allow customizing colors without going through a SASS processor and they have added proper support for dark/light theme. With this new version, I can drop also the requirement of jquery and also switch from Font Awesome to Bootstrap Icons. It comes with lots of small breaking changes, but they are all worth it! ๐Ÿš€
CSS variables

Use Bootstrapโ€™s CSS custom properties for fast and forward-looking design and development.

You need to have some courage to let your followers count go back to zero and start over. Seems the ego of many can't bare with that. Some also praise in silence the awful chief in place. Still can't comprehend that. ๐Ÿคฎ

I have to confess that I still go back to check Twitter from time to time to gather news that I missed here. I'm refusing to interact there, I don't favorite, I don't retweet, but at least, I can repost here. ๐Ÿ˜”

I hope that one day I won't have to do that anymore, once maybe we have reached a good critical mass here, but it really bothers me that many folks there are not here for reasons that I probably don't align with... ๐Ÿ˜’
