Explicit white backgrounds for QR codes #15

Open knghtbrd opened 3 years ago

knghtbrd commented 3 years ago

Hi, just thought you might want to make the white backgrounds on your QR codes explicitly white:

This nice dark Github theme is an override CSS, true, ("GithubDarkTheme();" specifically) but it's very well behaved and if MS ever implements one, they're likely to do it similarly. This is just one of those cases where you don't really want an alpha background.

or have it as an jpg/opaque png

😂 ms wouldn't enable force dark mode by default, mostly because of compatibility like that

Also, force dark mode (chromium) replaces even white explicit background with opposite color

Definitely reason to test with multiple browsers. Chrome's "force dark mode", if it now uses the stuff Brave does (which was probably a Chrome experimental feature) is sort of an in-browser darkreader extension. That's guaranteed to break things sooner or later just because it's indiscriminate. Mostly yes, the background should not be transparent. Or at least there should be a white background under it that maybe fuzzes at the edges to pure alpha.
