Brave browser
iPhone 15

the browser already has a night mode that makes TD colors inverted

so by choosing the new dark mode, it changes back to light mode

interestingly, one thread with "youtube algo" in the title appears in light mode when my browser is in dark mode (classic, not beta)

this occurs based on what I've seen for any thread with tech company in the title (e.g., Twitter, Youtube, facebook, et cetera) - I presume this is intentional and your team is aware of it but wanted to point it out nonetheless

thanks

yeah, unless Brave lets you make that setting at a website level, you won't want to turn on our dark mode feature.

not sure why that would happen...you can post a screen shot?

ran some search queries and it appears to be randomized. I've seen it happen before, but here's a picture of (1) this thread in browser dark mode in classic and (2) the one thread I mentioned appears in light mode even though the browser is set to dark mode

Eta: I'm using "private" browsing in Brave

Every time I've seen this issue happen, the thread title contained the name of a tech company.

If you download the browser and open the thread you will be able to replicate the issue for that one thread

I tried dark mode for awhile. At the office or a lighted area it's fine but in a dark area it was too dark. Probably more a phone problem or me problem.

Love the changes with one exception....the page numbers not showing up on the forum list. While the little arrow showing a trending topic is interesting, it's a poor indication of how long or active a thread is. Additionally, if I'm participating in a thread and I know I was on page 7, I can't direct click to page 7 any longer...extra clicks are annoying.

The little arrow actually takes you to the last page you read in the thread.

That's still not as good as having individual page numbers for long threads. Only being able to go directly to the last page still makes people do extra clicks for really no good reason.

Again, I don't understand why you would want to take away something that makes the site easier and faster to navigate.

Works. I like the colored up down arrows. Don’t know if it was on light mode. But notice it on dark mode. A like this. Enjoy reading in dark under stars. This is brilliant.
Thank you

1. Not all the page numbers were listed before...on a really long thread, you only got first 3 pages and the last 3...so, if you weren't on one of those pages, you had to click to get into the thread and navigate accordingly.

2. Now, you have a little icon after the thread title that takes you to the page where you last read...I would consider this to be more efficient for the reader.

Have you tried it out?

Is S21 a phone? So you clicked into desktop mode? Does classic look the same?

Just started this evening.

Yeah Samsung Galaxy

I've always run in desktop mode. Just prefer it over the TD mobile version

quote:

No formatting issues on classic.


I just logged into the site on the Samsung native browser which I never use and it's got the same format issues.

Not sure we made any changes to that page yesterday. Was this the first time you went into beta on this phone?

Does the regular mobile version look ok? Are you zooming in on TD? How does SECRant look?
