Mobile theme changing automatically

[conception_native_0123]

Has anyone else experienced this? @Jon ? I noticed a few weeks ago that the theme on my mobile phone here for the forum changed to the dark one and I never changed it myself. Just wondered if you ever heard of other complaints about it. Thanks.

Did you have an automatic update? If you are on Android, I had an Android update with the last couple of weeks. If you don't have that set for "silent update" then it could be that you got "tweaked."

An update to what? Chrome? Android operating system?

 

[The_Doc_Man]

I've had updates to both of those in the last 3 weeks.

are you saying that this stuff is now automatic without choice?

 

[The_Doc_Man]

The updates? No, you can choose to not perform an update. You have that choice.

are you talking about the updates you choose from the play store?

Automated updates. You usually get a notification that they are available. You don't have to "Allow" them.

[The_Doc_Man]

No, I don't.

The messages usually pop up in your "Alerts" section.

How?

I assume what he is talking about is the automatic OS Update of Android. Sometimes it happens that your system preferences are set to dark mode. I do not know how this website is programmed ofc but a lot of websites use the default mobile device setting to switch between dark and white mode

switch between dark and white mode

based on what I see when logging in, I would assume that I have been dealing with dark mode.

I am not facing this issue in my entire life

Now you are congrats!

but keep in mind I don’t know why that is. It is just an assumption
