Google chrome internal pages are in light mode

vinicius507 commented 2 years ago

Using Dracula GTK makes it so Google Chrome internal pages are in light mode. Trying to set gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme to 1 does nothing.

Dracula GTK Version: dracula-gtk-theme v3.0.2(AUR)

All applications that have the Dark theme enabled via "Apply the system theme" are not working.

Using the dracula theme extension is not the same as having a true dark mode experience, such as the one that is built-in with Chrome. Using the extension doesn't change the core problem, which is that the Dracula theme is detected as a light mode theme, since it doesn't change how it is seen by the system. (If that makes sense).

If we refer to the following Arch Wiki article regarding Chrome & Dark mode, using the dbus command with the Dracula theme simply gives back an answer of 0 which means No preference. Although I cannot replicate it at this moment, I also got Prefer light appearance when using this theme. That doesn't make any sense, considering Dracula is supposed to be a 100% dark theme.

Honestly idk why this bug hasn't been fixed yet? It feels very relevant for the user experience and to truly enjoy the theme.
