@hlfan Great work! I didn't even know there was a feature like that. And
recently I've even thought of using WebGL shaders for a more advanced filter
(there is a Leaflet plugin for that). Anyway, which of the options you've
tested you think would be best? Gamma is already a big improvement over the
current situation. Invert still seems better, but even with more control that
we got here it might not be usable for all layers.
@Wilhem275 I'm not a map expert, but I don't think a map is like a photo at
all. It's not satellite images, it's just a bunch of data that we want to
display to the user in the most intuitive way possible. As long at the
information is still visible and easy to understand, changing the colors **a
little bit** isn't a big deal. Obviously nothing should be done without testing
and discussion.

And in order to do that, you have to alter colors. You change the background
color and then you change other colors too, because colors that work well on a
white background usually don't work well on a dark background. Developing a
dark theme requires changing colors.

There might be people who want to enjoy dark/light theme without changing their
system settings.

[This
proposal](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/5324#issuecomment-2480755496)
would let you easily disable the filters by changing the map theme to light.
