I'm not seeing this on Windows 11 or on macOS 10.14.6. All dark mode via OS setting, browser, and Google look like it's working properly.
Windows 10/11 does have a system wide dark via Settings/Personalisation/Colors Changing this may help @pjozefiak Still an issue?

I'm having the same issue, except with Firefox instead of Brave. Couldn't find any other place mentioning this.
Description
I've noticed that on Windows 10 if I try to open any of the google pages in a new tab, the page will start in light mode, even while I have dark mode enabled in system, browser and google itself. After refreshing page properly goes into the dark mode. Also when the "light" homepage is opened this way, the mode toggle button in the bottom right does not work properly - it opens google account settings instead of switching between dark and light modes.
Steps to Reproduce
Actual result:
New google pages open in light mode, after refreshing it switches to dark mode, if you open another one in the new tab - it will start light as well. Same goes if try to search something from the homepage / address bar - the search result will start in light mode.
Expected result:
Google page starts in dark mode and keeps it
