Why is dark mode being forced and awful?

Chris Purser

The entire Jira documentation site is slaving to dark/light mode for the DEVICE and seems to be ignoring browser settings. 

I have my PC set to dark mode always because I like most of it to work that way. However, I have always had my browsers set to light mode because when at my desk, I prefer text written on light screens.

Suddenly, as of today, every help page I navigate to (only ono Atlassian systems) has awful readability, and inspection seems to suggest it's stuck in dark mode. If I take my entire computer out of dark mode, it fixes it. Of course, I won't be doing that. 

Even if Atlassian stuff was stuck in dark mode, it's not readable at all. Here's are some examples:

It's awful 

Thanks!

Hi Chris,

This seems like it would be a browser issue. Can you try a different browser? Also, the screenshots are of Atlassian Support web pages. Your question is posted in Confluence. Are you seeing issues with Confluence?
