Months ago, someone posted how to extend the cookie so that it doesn't reset every month, but I don't remember who posted it or where to go in order to extend it. It didn't work for me at the time, but I'm on a newer computer so maybe it might. Hopefully that person, or someone else who knows how, will post it again.

For Firefox, hit Shift + F9. Edit the Expiration of the "gf_css" cookie. I set it to expire in 2035. I think someone said it didn't work in Chrome or maybe it was that it doesn't work if you set the date too far out. I think it's no longer than 10 years. Maybe 5.

I actually like and use the default setting. The only acceptable variant to me is cloudy blue. I dislike any of the black background ones. I hate night mode shit.

I use some standard mostly. Dont understand the love for dark themes

Blue on Black is the only real option.

I'm the exact opposite. I despise screens full of white pages and love dark mode. It also helps that pretty much every screen I use is an OLED so the blacks look nice and it reduces the wear on the screen a little bit.

Awesome, thank you so much. I changed it to 2035 as well, refreshed the page, checked it again, and it stayed at 2035.

Jesus Christ, might as well use the "Awesome Mode" theme.

Has it been a week already?

I do. When added to Cotton Candy it looks like this:

Cotton Candy colors have a different meaning these days, I just realized.

I bounce between orange and green on black. They're the ones I find easiest to read.

Green on Black is the best for me.

a few years ago people would just presume I was on Robinhood lol

Haha this shit cracks me up. I rock cloudy blue but when it goes back to the default I am like oh that's more white than I remember. I don't want dark mode or the cotton candy variety though that's funny on a lark. Cheers to the people who use: well Cotton Candy.

RIP your phone battery if you browse on a phone.

Well, presuming you have an OLED screen

If its white specifically that bugs you it might be worth looking into an extension like dark reader or something that tries to set a default dark mode for everything. Or can filter if you only want some sites using it.

Cloudy Blue has white and youtube I just use the base white layout there if this is addressed to me. It's well looking at greys and duller colors sometimes really is pleasant. So I never wanted to not use Cloudy Blue when I found it.

Its definitely a vampire caught in the sun moment for me

Orange on black best theme

i wish i could like, permanently dim my eyes or something, so everything i see is several times darker than it ordinarily would be. this would be a remarkable improvement to my QOL

Well shoot, I'd like to give you a great big THANK YOU for this theme! I've been using it ever since it was available. The white, grey and blue just feels like Gamefaqs to me.
