It's great that sites offer both light and dark mode, but why do I have to manually choose? Use `prefers-color-scheme` in your CSS, and the site will adjust to my already expressed preference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/At-rules/@media/prefers-color-scheme

prefers-color-scheme - CSS | MDN

The prefers-color-scheme CSS media feature is used to detect if a user has requested light or dark color themes. A user indicates their preference through an operating system setting (e.g., light or dark mode) or a user agent setting.
