Google says the “Expanded” dark mode is intended to improve accessibility, but you may experience appearance issues when using it as some apps won’t play nicely with it. If that happens, then it’s recommended you enable the “Standard” dark mode instead, as it won’t force a dark theme on apps that don’t support it.

An actually useful feature in a new Android release!

Maybe then finally Firefox will start behaving! So sick of being flash banged because Firefox didn't get the memo about the switch to dark mode according to the system schedule.

I just use the Dark Reader extension

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Right, so do I. It's just that I have it set to follow the system theme, which I suppose Firefox reports as light mode even though dark mode is active.

Ah, I wasn't sure if they had a built-in dark mode like on apple handhelds (it works poorly on my iPad fwiw). Yeah I prefer dark mode all the time so I don't have it alternate on a schedule. It does seem to work if I manually toggle dark mode, but maybe the issue lies with the browser recognizing when an automatic switch is made

That's exactly the case, yeah. Firefox doesn't seem to notice sometimes. It's not every time either so it's been hard to pinpoint what the circumstances have to be... 😅
