Open up about:config and go to layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override and set it to one of the following:
0 => Force a Dark background
1 => Force a Light background
2 => Follow the System theme (default in Firefox 94)
3 => Follow the Browser toolbar theme (default in Firefox 95+)
You light mode monster. Dark mode for life.
I’m not a edgy programmer
I just want something that is readable. Is that to much to ask?
What I really want is the resist fingerprinting theme. Don’t ask me why but it is the best for some reason.
that does not force the websites, but tells them to show the dark style if they have one. It’s activated if your browser is set to a dark theme
I know and I don’t like it. I want a dark browser theme and normal websites
fair enough. but I think I remember an option on the main settings page that allows you to change it this way
Why would anyone want this?
Readability
The Firefox light UI sucks but I don’t want website turning into black unreadable nonsense.
I think this is also in Settings under Language and Appearance, Website appearance, unless this is a stricter setting that ensures it works as desired.
You can also use Dark Reader in a reverse way by forcing everything into a light theme, or sepia if that makes reading better for you.
I don’t want pure light mode. I just want the defaults for each website.
tl;dr: How to turn your computer monitor into a flashbang.
I just want text to be readable. Not everyone is hanging out in a basement.
Lmao at the mild abuse OP is getting from DarkMode fanatics. Though I do get it. FUOP!
“And I took it personally”
AS YOU SHOUUUULD
You don’t need
about:config
for this.This is the same setting you can configure in the preferences under “Website appearance”… if you change that you’ll see the
about:config
setting changes too.
