I’ve had the same experience. I’m using Darkreader for the time being but it seems bizarre for the built in option to be missing.
Same here, same version; I can confirm I no longer see the option in settings. But it was there not too long ago: I used it to enable the dark mode a few months back, and it still works. So funnily enough, even if I wanted to turn it off now, with the setting gone I can’t.

Same here. Fix by removal. 
Its not supported yet, but in the future you’ll likely be able to specify a color that’s actually a list of colors and have the browser pick the one with the best contrast.

The option was never supposed to be enabled because Framework’s engineering team never looked at it or approved it. It was likely turned on by accident as part of an update. Because it had some bugs that caused things to not display correctly, and generally did not look up to par with Framework’s design standards (as you can see in the screenshots that others have posted), the team decided to disable it until Framework engineering has time to set it up properly and get it looking good.
Unfortunately, they don’t have the resources to do this immediately, but it’s on their list to look at in the future. Until then, your best bet, like others have suggested, is to use a browser extension. Thanks, all!
This should be fixed now. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!
Yeah, I’m aware.
Hmmm, not for me.
Uh, the options to switch between light and dark are now completely missing. Stuck in dark mode with unreadable text because the thread listing still uses black text on a dark background!
Can this please be fixed

One must suffer for the dark mode cause. I may have started this thread, but dammit I’ll take my hard to read dark forums over the blinding light of light mode. I shan’t ever fall so low to willingly choose the light
(But you do what ever is most comfortable to you of course, this is just me)

Dark Mode was disabled for a reason and needs a rework, folks. Given the poor experience it provides, it will need to remain disabled for the moment. Thank you for your understanding.
I believe your browser’s cookie manages the info of the dark mode of this forum. So, if you remove the cookie info coming from this forum site, you can reset the color. I would recommend using a browser plugin where you can remove only specific cookies instead of removing all the cookies. I am using the plugin Cookie Quick Manager (plugin link) on my Firefox.

In your preferences, you should be able to select the “Framework Theme” as I’ve confirmed it is the default and is enabled as “selectable”.
I’ll dig in tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

@TheTwistgibber no worries, it‘s not that big of a problem and only a problem on my phone (I‘m using a browser extension on Windows, so it’s fine)
Ah, okay. Right. Thanks for checking it. So, it seems the color theme data is stored on the server side. Users can’t change it by themselves.
It is done.
