I think this is definitely something we need to address, but the major difficulty here is that there is significant overlap between several related features, and we have not yet found a good way to slice the problem up: * Preference for a light-on-dark mode vs dark-on-light vs no preference * Preference for a low-contrast mode vs high-contrast mode vs no preference * The UA has forcibly inverted the colors, at a pixel level * The UA has forcibly boosted / reduced contrast, at a pixel level * The UA has forcibly inverted the colors, by changing the styles of elements in the page * The UA has forcibly boosted / reduced contrast, by changing the styles of elements in the page * The page is viewed in a brightly lit environment, using a device which is washed out and is hard to read in such situations (eg. LCD, not paper or e-ink) * The page is in a dimly lit environment, using a device which is blinding in such situations (e.g. LCD) * The page is in a dimly lit environment, using a device which has no built-in light and is hard to see in such situations (e-ink) * … and probably more … Some of these are commonly wanted together, but not always, and which combinations are desirable or not depend on personal preferences but also on accessibility related concerns. Having a dozen media queries for this is almost certainly not the right solution, but how many are needed is unclear. So far, I don't think anyone has been able to come of with a proposal that covered this problem space reasonably well. -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2735#issuecomment-394984252 using your GitHub account
