I think site/application-specific toggling of dark mode is a fundamentally broken idea, since the default on the web is white background pages. It’s an awful experience to turn up the brightness when viewing dark pages, when most pages you open will be white by default! Ideally, all portals must support theming modes, but I’d like the switching to be seamless, to prevent such nasty surprises. Maybe based on a standard (something like the site delivers both CSS sets, and logic in the browser chooses which ones to display, or suitably “invert” the default)
