in thread Dark Mode for AM?

Do I need to adjust one or more settings somewhere for this to be automatic?

I don't think so. I am curious why it's not working for you. Works flawlessly for me; and I haven't heard anyone complaining of issues.

I don't log in and out ... Duplicate Tab, then change org to net ...

Ah. Well, the Domain Nodelet makes that a snap; no address editing necessary. Just open the 'net' link (in the Domain Nodelet) in new tab. Done.

    Re Newest Nodes and Recently Active Threads, I'm not going to stay away for a few days just to test that. :-) However, I will try to remember to monitor the situation when that next happens and report back.

    Re Domain Nodelet, I've enabled that. Links from there only retain the node_id=nnnn part of the query string; for example, with https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=6364;user=861371 in the address bar, the Domain Nodelet shows links to http://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl?node_id=6364, http://perlmonks.com/index.pl?node_id=6364 and so on.

      Yes, that's true. That's the one weakness. Hopefully you don't encounter that situation too often. I know I run into it occasionally, and have to edit the URL. For example, when I read your node above, I was on .com, where I'm logged in as erzuuli; I hit 'Reply'; then decided I wanted to reply as me, so I edited the URL. But that situation is generally pretty easy to avoid, for the most part.

        A follow-up to this part of "Re^5: Dark Mode for AM?".

        It turns out that, due to unforeseen circumstances, "when that next happens" occurred just a few days later. I kept some notes. For reference, my current timezone is "AEDT - Australian Eastern Daylight Savings Time" (UTC+11:00).

        1. I used my bookmarked link https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=861371. This put me on kcott's home node as AM (i.e. not logged in). It showed: "Last here: Oct 23, 2023 at 20:48 UTC (2 days ago)".
        2. I logged in. This put me on kcott's home node as kcott (i.e. logged in). It showed: "Last here: Oct 26, 2023 at 17:49 AEDT (0 seconds ago)".
        3. I immediately went to Newest Nodes. This showed: "Show nodes created within the past [1 v] days [Submit]" (that's a dropdown list and a submit button).
        4. I next went to Recently Active Threads. This showed: "Showing nodes created within the past [1 v] days" (that's a dropdown list).

        It's actually fairly rare for me to not log in for over 24 hours. Making manual adjustments, when that does happen, is minimal effort and doesn't bother me.
