  • No. In addition to browsers’ prefers-dark-mode setting, there is also the fallback foreground and background color choice, used whenever a website does not specify a foreground or background color. One common case is when viewing a plain unstyled site or txt file.

    A dark-mode preferring user might choose for these fallbacks a light foreground and dark background. The problem is then that some designers will carelessly specify either the foreground or background color (and not both), assuming that their choice will happen to have good contrast with every user’s browser preferences.

    More low contrast examples from the Statamic docs:

    Statamic search field

    Statamic adspace

    In Firefox’s preferences page those settings are accessed with the “Manage Colors” button just below dark-mode selection, and look like this:

    Firefox Preferences -- Manage Colors

    Notice that I am not overriding any colors specified by the page.










  • I didn’t downvote, and I’m not accusing you of anything.

    Someone asked why anyone would downvote this. Many of us don’t know what waifu wallpaper stuff is about, but if I do an image search for waifu I see lots of young girl cartoon porn stuff, and I have heard of some folks calling their child-like sex pillow by that word.

    So my answer is that those of us who don’t know what you’re talking about may have ideas from sources like that, and nothing in the post added explanation for this crowd. That may explain some downvotes.


    FYI when I type “waifu” into Bing one of the suggestions is “waifu body pillow with hole.” And for “waifu is” the first suggestion is “waifu is for low lives.”

    My point is you shouldn’t expect people who don’t know about it to understand it properly, when only casual familiarity content is full of stuff like that.


  • I’m not claiming all anime fans are anything in particular. I’m saying I don’t know what all the things mean, and thought that “waifu” might mean sex-with-pillow-child stuff. It probably doesn’t mean that, but people like me who know nothing about it might make that same mistake, which could explain some downvotes, which was my aim.


  • I didn’t downvote, but for those of us outside this world, we might misunderstand this as:

    I want to have regular sex with a pillow made to look like a child, and I want all you internet strangers to:

    • imagine me doing this,
    • help me do this, and
    • don’t act like it’s weird or personal or inappropriate

    I know that I don’t know what I’m talking about, and would just ignore a post like this, but since you wonder at any downvotes, my sample misunderstanding may explain some of them.
