      For everyone that has the same problem, I just found out that you can right click on the page and disable the forced dark theme !

        @veldam And if you try the opera://flags/#enable-force-dark

        Click on the dropdown and choose a different setting, you don't have to disable Force Dark mode.

                    @sgunhouse said in Messed up colors due to Force Dark Pages:

                    @sirblobfish If you go to

                    chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark
                    

                    you will see about 10 different options in the dropdown related to force dark mode, including one that applies it only to non-image elements.. You might try that.

                    OMG This one works!! Thank you!!

                          This issue is fixed. More like you just have to make a settings change to what looks good for dark pages. opera://flags/#enable-force-dark
                          Pick one of the drop down menu times.
                          Im using Seletive Inversion of Non Image Elements. Working great on all web pages I have set for dark theme.

                            How to switch off dark theme on websites in opera, I tried everything and its not switching to light and I can't read anything due to vision problems , flags, settings, reinstall, nothing turns it off. Its version 88.0.4412.53, I've had this problem since the latest update

                                  See https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/wiki/opera/dark_mode_settings and try the advanced things there if the normal things don't work. When you're done, close any tabs that have the problem site open, open a new tab, goto the URL opera://settings/siteData, type the domain for the problem site in the search-cookies field, and click "remove all shown". Then, open up a new tab and goto the site to see if things are then fine.

                                    @zzann Thanks for your replies 🤗 I had to set it to this under flags to get rid of dark pages

                                    while its still exactly not what I wanted its acceptable as I can now read pages so its a win anyway 😁 Thanks again for your helpful suggestions ☺ xxx

                                        @challenger392 this should be pinned up, because its the only thing that really works.

                                          I absolutely Hate what Dark Mode does to YouTube. I Need dark mode for photophobia, but there's no reason that it should mess up youtube videos. I frequently take screencaps of youtube videos and this is screwing it up. It's a deal breaker. Please make this stupid feature go away. Dark mode shouldn't add anything visually to the page... just make it dark. I don't know why we even need to be having this conversation. This is a unwanted and superfluous feature of Dark Mode. Make it go away.

                                            @davebjornrapp As said, disable Force Dark Pages on YouTube and use its own dark theme.

                                            You can also try messing with opera://flags/#enable-force-dark
