Default light theme and preinstalled uBlock Origin #2680

Closed torontal7 closed 8 months ago

torontal7 commented 10 months ago

Description

Set light theme (both for normal and incognito mode) and install uBlock Origin by default

Who's implementing?

The problem

Yesterday I downloaded ungoogled-chromium_120.0.6099.129-1.1.AppImage. After starting it, I learned that it uses dark theme (both for normal and incognito mode) and there is no possiblity to change to light. Well, I do not want to destroy my eyes, and of course there are other people in the same situation. I looked at issues and found https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/1928 and tried the "solution", setting chrome://flags/#enable-incognito-themes to enabled and also chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark to disabled and then restart but nothing changed: the browser is still in dark mode and in settings no possibility to change to light.

The other problem: Nowdays practically without uBlock Origin you cannot use the internet: 100% CPU load, annoying ads, time waste, you cannot see the real content, etc.

Possible solutions

Set light theme by default both for normal and incognito mode. And in incognito mode that dark new tab page must be replaced with a light one, too.

Install uBlock Origin by default for every ungoogled-chromium release. And of course enabled also in incognito mode by default.

Alternatives

To not use Chromium at all...

Additional context

No idea, what to write here...

Please select the proper issue template and fill all fields.

The issue template was OK, but now it is not. Can you explain why you removed the original label? What additional info you need? I explained clearly what is the problem and also what would be the solution. Take a look at this issue: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/2673 Here even less info was provided

No response

but the original labels were not removed and they understood the problem. What is in my description that you cannot understand?

If that's an issue with light/dark theme, you should've chosen "Bug Report" template.

I assumed that intentionally was made so.

"The other problem" ← you should not mix multiple issues into one report. Please decompose them into separate ones.

Yes, I know this rule but I thought 2 problems are not so much...

"Install uBlock Origin by default" ← This has been discussed a lot, please use the search function to find more details

I did search but not found an issue with this sepicific request. I admit that it could be mentioned among others. is:issue is:open uBlock Origin : Disaster : discrimination huge bug with heavy ads and crypto mining https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/2066 Add flag to hide installed extensions for websites https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/2008 Is there any way to remove any Google related text in the browser? https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/900 DNS-lookup(and https connect) of single-word searches done in omnibar is happening https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/814 The future of content filtering (declarativeNetRequest, Manifest v3, and beyond) https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/662

But what matters: it is not preinstalled. Unfortunately.

"it uses dark theme (both for normal" ← this statement is false

Yes, I think understand now what happened. When I tried the appimage I used Legacy OS. And there everything was set to dark mode. It seems that they somehow managed that even an appimage would start with dark theme, even Chromium in "normal" mode. Now, I cannot test this since I am using Knoppix wich is a 32 bit OS. This would be an other problem: appimages are available only for 64 bit Linux (with a few exceptions). But I do not open an issue, it is a general problem, not only for this project... And in incognito mode? Most of the time I use incognito, so if it cannot set to light, that is still a problem...
