Comment on Dark mode’s bright future: How dark mode will transform Wikipedia’s accessibility
hsdkfr734r@feddit.nl 3 months agoMaybe. Does it make a big performance difference which css (dark reader or delivered by wiki) is used?
Is it known how the default to dark mode setting is persisted if let’s say a plugin removes all the Wikipedia cookies on window close? A get or post parameter?
Either way it’s a good thing that wiki offers a dark mode.

Dark reader is one of the heaviest extensions you use, lots of dom navigation and modifications.

That’s good to know. These modifications are needed to replace the style sheet details, I guess?
What does this mean? Do you have a link where I could read up on the details?

Webextensions get their own webprocessss as well as running in the website. I don’t have a link but if you read their source they just pass a lot of data to their process to determine things (last i looked some years ago).
