We can put CSS in our generators that works with the user’s dark mode setting on their device. But it would be great if that was built-in to the default styles. Doesn’t have to be anything fancy, this would do for a start:

@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
  body {
    background-color: #000;
    color: #aaa;
  }
}

It seems some of the templates may override such styles and make the body white and such anyway. So maybe that’s something to look into as well.

    Yeah, I see what you mean. For a different angle… if everyone is only using it in light mode currently, dark mode not looking great won’t bother those people anyway.

    And for those that are trying to use perchance in dark mode, they’re not getting a good experience anyway. At least if the site is trying to help them out there’s a chance it’s more usable in dark mode without just sitting there blinded.

    And it could encourage them to give feedback to the creator that the generator looks crap in dark mode… which could result in more creators actually sorting that out.
