Can someone please rebase and merge this? Its monday, plenty of office-going people will see the darkened map for the first time and it would help immensely to avoid the influx of bugreports and complaints on support channels. We know from the large amount of upheaval that this css rule brought

For what it is worth, as someone that loves dark mode and even has an AMOLED display that makes a pure black background very easy on the eyes, for someone that is a fan of dark mode, I don't want my normal map usage to have tiles that have a dark background. Only while driving I like having dark

The idea of dark mode has always been about contrast. There is a substantial part of the population that dislikes the over-saturation of light as that makes the non-light elements get pushed out. Imagine ink on a napkin, it bleeds out and your text needs to be bigger and brighter to compensate.

This seems to have been rolled out on the main website. At least, the main website has some css trick to make the tiles darker on my firefox on desktop. The unfortunate downside of this solution is that I can't use the website anymore. The contrast is too low, the text has become unreadable. T
