Right, so there is such a thing as going too far… this should at least be a configurable option so that folks who want web sites to adapt to their system light/dark mode settings can have that.

There’s a line between protecting people and being paternalistic. And I can’t believe I’m the one having to say this but privacy isn’t the only concern when designing (e.g., in this case you might be overriding someone’s accessibility preferences).

Screenshot of LibreWolf Website appearance settings: “Some websites adapt their color scheme based on your preferences. Choose which color scheme you’d like to use for those sites. This feature is disabled because ResistFingerprinting is enabled. This means LibreWolf will force web content to display in a light theme.”

This issue summarises the issue and suggests a good solution (to have an option to override just the color-scheme setting without disabling fingerprint resistance in general).

It looks like there was a new option merged for overriding this but I can’t see it / adding it does nothing in the version I have (latest from Flatpak).

Also, this is not the right attitude any dev should have: “let the noisy uneducated great dirty unwashed plebs and luddite complainers about RFP have on/off toggles for parts of RFP“

If you find yourself thinking about the people who use your tools like this, just quit. Don’t make anything, it’s better for everyone.

@aral@mastodon.ar.al well I use it and we, geek people, must acknowledge that LW is *way* too focused on security. Nothing like a daily usable browser for non tech people (or people that don't have time to tweak a setting every time a site breaks)
