Ive never noticed this until last night but how come when i use a theme it controls whether website pages i browse will be light theme or dark theme? is there a way to turn this off? I have a theme on rn and i like it but i cant use firefox atm because certain websites i browse show up as dark theme and i hate that i just want them all to be light theme. Thanks for the help in advance.

In version 100 you'll be able to configure it in Settings. For now, enter about:config in the URL bar and set layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override = 1 or 2.
