I did not find a place to comment on your post...
But, the maim problem IMHO are not software themselves, but it is a matter of mindset...
Windows and MacOS worlds, especially the former, were design to raise generations of illiterate IT people...
They have detonated their narrow minds with the "point-and-click" computer life-style that is hard to knock down...
If schools, universities and government agencies do not fight this trend, I bet they will not - because they already have been bought by these big players, we will end-up in a "Idiocracy" < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiocracy > society...
But, do not be fooled, because I also have crossed and dealt with people who have IT computer degrees who also did not know what unix/Linux, openSource, FS and the like was and were and are slaves of M$ in their personal life and work...
Do not conclude that Programmers everywhere in the world know their craft in a deep level.
I also have seen some of them who do not know how to use a terminal for installing and configuring simple things...
Sorry to comment your post here...
I find your term of "flashbang" extremely accurate in how I feel when I open a web site at night and it blinds me with a white screen. Thanks for coming up with it!
However, the solution you are proposing, in my experience, doesn't work quite as well as one hopes; it does indeed switch the site to a dark-mode palette, however it doesn't eliminate the following problems:
chrome/userContent.css to fix this:@-moz-document url(about:blank) {
* {
background: #2a2a2e;
}
}
@-moz-document {
html:root {
background: #2a2a2e;
}
}
@-moz-document url-prefix(http:), url-prefix(https:), url-prefix(file:) {
html:root {
background: #2a2a2e;
}
}
some browsers will eagerly start rendering the partial HTML received, before loading the CSS, thus if the site owner puts that CSS in a file, at the end, you'll still get the "flashbang" effect (although for a limited time); one solution is to put that in <head><style>... as close as possible to the beginning of the HTML;
in recent releases, there is another option to instruct the browser that the site prefers a dark-mode color scheme, and the browser would choose the colors; this is achieved by the following <head> snippet <meta name="color-scheme" content="dark" />; it is specified here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/meta/name
in relation to the previous item, it appears there is also a color-scheme CSS attribute that does the same: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color-scheme
Thanks for the article!
