This is reported by @ASL4U at this Lemmy Comment (I would assume they are the same person on the General Chat @ the Hub), that there are some users having the Dark Theme applying to the Preview Panel in Light Mode.

I tested it on Chrome v.118, on Windows 10 with Device Theme ‘Light’, I would have brief flash of the Dark Theme on the Preview but resolves itself.

However, there are some instances where the Dark Theme would remain like the attached image. The reporter tested it on Linux Mint 21.2 using Chrome (most up to date).

If you experience the same thing, even after changing the appropriate Device and Browser Themes (if applicable), please comment below your:

System: (Windows, Mac, Linux etc. + version e.g. Windows 10)
Browser: (Edge, Chrome, etc. + version e.g. Chrome v.118)
Device Theme: (Dark/Light)
Browser Theme (if applicable): (Dark/Light)

    Update: It might be only on Linux based OSes.
    Update 2: It seems to be a problem only when loading directly into a URL with #edit e.g. perchance.org/minimal#edit and not when going to perchance.org/minimal then opening the edit UI. So, opening a generator from the user generator list might give the problem. Going fullscreen from entering the url with #edit then going back to edit mode seems to fix it. Here is a demo of it.

    I am unable to use the ‘Chromium’ browser on Debian 12.

      Big oof. Fixed now. So, so sorry it took me so long to fix this!! Really should have tested it a bit more thoroughly, or at least checked lemmy more frequently!

      Also, I’m sure you’ve noticed, but I still haven’t worked out syntax highlighting properly. The highlighting of JS goes all weird sometimes. A lot better than previously imo, but definitely not ideal

        It does sometimes goes weird but it seems alright for most cases.
