Site seems to be having graphical rendering issues

Hey all, didn't know where to put this. However the site status bar seems to be slightly broken and wanted to report it. The notification section isn't being rendered correctly. I thought it was Chrome specifically, but it's also present in Firefox.

I’ve seen the same this morning using Safari on iPadOS. Some elements look vertically challenged.

It's also here on edge.
 
For now, I've changed the default style to one that works. If you are not seeing "VB 3.x - Fluid" in the lower left, you may need to log out and in again.

That style should have always been selectable by clicking on that area. The main drawback is that this style has no dark mode.

In terms of the dark mode. The site never seemed to auto switch like other forums I use do. Although the MacRumors site seems to be the main one that auto switches based on if the OS is in light / dark mode. AVSForum may have also at one point, but yeah, not many forums seem to auto switch. Google, Youtube, etc also switch automatically.

That enabled me to read the forum in Dark Mode the entire day. Loved that!

Now I seem to have Light Mode the entire day… 😢

Is there a way to enable Dark Mode again (as an individual user)?

PS: I don’t see a pencil (edit button) in the left corner.
 
@XIII I disabled the other modes since they are funky. Sorry.
@iFrogMac Sorry, but when the previous themes come back, they won't auto-switch.
 
The site really does need a dark style/theme. Like it is now i'm struggling to read.
As @dpm mentions, on multiple browsers on multiple devices, including a computer I've never used before, there's no style link bottom left.
I could always switch to firefox and install the dark reader plugin, but that browser is designated for only network stuff.
 
I thought Safari on iOS is playing up. How can I read all the ramblings here in bed? 🫣🤪
 
@thiggins The auto switch isn't a big deal. I was just under the impression it was a standard functions of sites these days, so am surprised when sites that have a dark mode, don't also have an option to auto switch.
 
On chrome, opera and firefox I do not see the "vB 3.x" text in the bottom, left corner. Although the colours do seem to match the "vB" style.
Firefox user here (mac). I do not see it either. Already logged out and back in.
