      Yup yup. Darkreader has improved my entire internet experience, which is a huge accomplishment. Works flawlessly 99% of the time.

        somehow, the “dark reader clone” that’s in samsung browser it’s so much accurate. Main disadvantage is that you have to use samsung browser (ugh)…

        DR itself is clearly fingerprintable, more so than a dark preference.

      or… just lower your monitor brightness so you don’t feel like you need dark mode, which is actually worse in every way than just using the correct monitor brightness.

    With everybody using black pixels, they’re becoming more expensive as they rarefy worldwide. This kind of thing was to be expected, really.

    I’ve seen this in many places. I don’t remember them because I stop caring when I notice the cut of their jib.

    Dextero is pretty trash in general so I’m not surprised in the slightest. So much bot content on there

        Sorry I didn’t mean any negatively towards you there. I just remember what the site was like before it hit my blocklist. It was before chatgpt got big but everything I read on there was scraped info from other sites and full of errors

          I took your previous comment to be a critic of Dexerto.Not towards me. No apology needed.

          Thanks for warning me about their quality, its now on my blocklist too.

            No prob…I avoid RockPaperShotgun, too, because 90% of their articles are thinly-veiled ads

      Ars dark mode switching is infuriating, not an asshole design choice like Dexerto here

      Be me,

      • Click on an article link in rss feed.Open in browser(in dark mode)

      • Ars technica doesn’t change its theme.

      • Open the menu to switch theme, click on dark mode.

      • Goes to the homepage in dark mode.

      • Go back to rss reader click that link again.

    Firefox with the extension “Dark Reader” is great. There are some websites I have to disable it, but it’s rare. I also recommend uBlock Origin.

    Edit: I see someone already recommended dark reader. But it really is a must have extension. It knows if your system theme is set to light or dark and matches it automatically.

            yeah but why did the comment sync but not the delete, if they’re just a couple of seconds apart (I realized that I can’t read pretty quickly this time)

      I just want them to follow system default for guest user(s).

      they probably require an account because they have a system set up in a way where it’s mostly a server-side app and ui settings are only stored on the server

      This makes more sense for signed in user(s).

      No dark mode unless you register, is what I consider to be a asshole design choice.

          Ok, made an account(used a temp email). Nothing exquisite, just being able to switch between light and dark mode. I expected an option to set the toggle to follow device default after making an account and signing in.

          Doesn’t even remember which mode was toggled during the previous sign in.
