Just got back from an absence and I don't remember the website being so blue.
I personally find it hard to read.
Does anyone know of a setting on a pc to make the website more normal.
Thanks

Turn off dark mode in your Windows settings for applications.

I was wondering what was going on myself. I noticed it two days ago and don't remember changing anything in my computer settings.

Go to "Edit my profile" and change the user interface to "Legacy", maybe that helps?

None of the changes suggested seemed to make too much of a difference.
Oh well, not a big problem. Maybe in a few years it will grow on me wink

What is your Operating System? You are requesting dark mode.

I dual boot so both windows 10 and 11 and my smartphone all look very blue to me.
I am currently booted into windows 11 and have changed from dark mode to light mode with no noticeable difference.

If its a design choice, that's fine by me. The website is still very functional.

Take care.

If you change out of dark mode in Windows and refresh the page, it should display light.

Yup, just did it for me on Chrome. Didn't even need a refresh.

I use Edge, seems that browser may not be supported as switching windows to light mode made no difference as I stated in my previous post.
Good to know Chrome works, I will try that when I boot back into my other image.

Thanks for trying to help.

For reference, I am using Safari on my iPad and about 2 weeks ago it changed for me as well without me making any changes to my settings. I haven’t tried to change it back yet, but I’m not sure where to start either.

For iOS devices. It’ll be in your display and brightness. Light and dark mode. wink if it makes you feel better I was thrown off by this as well.

We are trying to make the new dark mode a bit better. It will take some fine tuning but will be better in the coming days.

No joy here unfortunately in Firefox.

While I roll in dark mode, reading blue on black with white text is very straining on my eyes unfortunately.

Kyle, in Firefox, try Settings, then under the Language and Appearance, Website appearance, select "Light" from the list of "Automatic" "Light" and "Dark"

That would force all of the websites he visits to be in light mode as well which I don’t think is what he wants.

I think this new update either needs an option to be turned off or just canned all together. Sure I can go into my settings to fix it but this is the only website that shows up looking horrible using Dark Mode
