🔒 Chick's mom showing as white

my newest chicken is showing her mom (a black chicken) as white for some reason (selina doesn't have a filter)

huh... I wonder if it's because of my phone's dark mode... @MisspelledFox

@MisspelledFox yep.... turning it to day mode fixed it. I guess I've never thought about it before pfff

That's such an interesting/specific way to implement dark mode, I am kind of amused that a singular chicken got inverted; does the phone try to be smart about image colours and invert images that are almost entirely black? think emoji something to look up tomorrow

@circlejourney haha, just noticed it changes other colors as well

@LvEx oh that's hilarious, I'll have to take a look and see if I can find docs on how they handle dark mode. Is this an app or the OS itself that's enforcing dark mode?

@circlejourney it's my phone's internet app! samsung internet, i believe. in the options, there's a toggle for "Light theme sites" and "Dark theme sites" and i use the latter!

I've done a bunch of dark mode changes which I'm hoping will help indicate to the dark mode app that the site has a dark theme. Does this still happen? If so then I think that might be the limit of what I can do on my end pensive emoji but I will keep researching it!

@circlejourney it still does that! it's honestly not that big of a deal to me, i don't generally get on mobile unless there's stuff i need to look at immediately


(i also wanted to say thank you for making mobile so functional; it's so easy to use unlike most sites)

@LvEx Thanks for checking! Hopefully it's not a massive bother 🙏 but I will definitely read up because these auto dark modes seem like a recent change and I'd like to get knowledgeable about how to handle them.

(also yeah I put a lot of effort into the mobile UI so seeing people play it on mobile makes me happy)
