Agreed. In the meanwhile;

Download dark reader, enable it and you can get the forum to look pretty good that way.

Here's a screenshot.

Definitely better.
BTW, really strange colors selected for "Off" pudding websites.  From "Off" to pyscho pastels.  Yes, you can not "dark mode" per site.  Learn quickly where option is.

A native dark mode theme may come. For now, this works ok. @a740g any tips for these folks with dark reader?

No prob! I have been using it for a few years. It realllllly makes the web more friendly to me. Also remember `ALT-SHIFT-D` will toggle it on and off.

Not me.  The contrasts in shade's don't show up well for my poor eyes.  I'll probably always be a "Night" user.  Wink
