<![CDATA[Dark mode settings are not working for websites and dev tools]]>This bug in the latest version is not related to the "force dark mode" setting, but to a app/site/dev tools settings. Since the latest version, Google, dev tools and many other applications and sites viewed in Opera are showing as a light theme despite being set to dark theme (or system). Sometimes when refreshed, it goes back to dark mode but then immediately to the light mode.

Please fix this!

However, there is another option below that "Match color chrome scheme" -- when enabled I get the behavior as described. but if I disable that the dark theme remains active and works as expected.

And dark mode extensions just looks very shitty.

Use Brave cos it uses Chromium(So, basically a better opera) and also blocks ads the way you are supposed to. The Dev of Brave is more considering when it comes to clogging your tab list with ads, unlike in Opera. Mozilla is good If u r web dev. Vivaldi is Edge 2.0, syncing is a nightmare last I used it and it was a buggy mess.

Only dev tools are.

I can choose on the Theme options between "Browser Preferance", Light" Dark". When I open the inspector, its light mode, when I go to the options, it is shown as being set to "Dark". Switching to anything resets it. Opening and closing the inspector tab makes it white, no matter which option is chosen. Disabled all extensions to test if it was one of them, no difference. Extensions:
"Server IP", uBlock Origin, Zoho Vault, Session Buddy, Laravel TestTools (Disabled 98% of website visits) ImTranslator, Dislikes in YT.
