I recently spent ages trying to find a good solution to webpages not displaying in the font I want them to display in for accessibility reasons; I couldn't find a solution that worked everywhere or almost everywhere. Even the in browser settings aren't respected the majority of time.
But a couple of weeks ago I randomly discovered that the #DarkReader browser addon I have been using for years had a font override option the whole time. I've been using that feature since and haven't had an issue at all, it seems to work flawlessly with font fallback working too. I highly recommend it.
well well well, i have synthesised a pretty comfy workaround. the basic problem ofc remains, which is why i call this a workaround not solution.
, hence can/does use the Mozilla-created AddOn #SideView (which tbh i always misremember as being #OpenInSidebar)fwiw.
@helpers i really wish there was another option for having a dark theme in #Friendica. i would like having a multi-shade black / charcoal page, with lavender / violet accents, but so far have not found a way to achieve it (note, for many years i used to use the #Stylus AddOn, with which i created numerous custom themes for many sites, but a year ago i disabled it & others as part of my desire to begin minimising all non-essential AO attack surfaces). Though in many ways using #DarkReader for Friendica is quite good, overall i tend to eschew it being on for this site, coz it hides that handy temporary shading highlight of posts in a thread for which a Notification was received.
The small number of current dark themes offer me a rather unappealing colour choice.
The custom theme option initially excited me, til i realised, afaict, it is based on the Light theme, with no Dark theme option, so that all the dialogue boxes & dropdown menus remain eye-piercingly bright white, that hurts my eyes. The least-worst i could conjure was
{"nav_bg":"#54207b","nav_icon_color":"#f3d0f1","link_color":"#5b38a6","background_color":"#5b4d71","background_image":"","contentbg_transp":"42"}inevitably then, i keep returning to the so-called Black theme, but it is... quite boring. the entire page is simply all a single "shiny" black tone, with my chosen accent relieving the monotony. compare this to the so-called Dark themes, to see the difference; they use different shades of the base colour, which is more visually appealing, creating a "panelled" effect.
When a website has not a #darkreader mode my eyes be gonna 🔥👀🔥 #ouch
