My default color scheme is WCAG light. So, when I choose, for example, “grey amber,” it still looks like the light theme [1] . So, I visit https://meta.discourse.org/my/preferences/interface and change the color scheme to “Theme default” and remove the tick to change it on all devices. At least for me…

I think some of these issues may be addressed by this PR (not yet merged at time of writing): UX: fixes and improvements for color palettes by awesomerobot · Pull Request #34359 · discourse/discourse · GitHub

Yes, today switching to “theme default” still doesn’t stay when I reload, while switching to for example dark works.
