Thank you for your answer.

It depends on your browser settings. If you set the theme to "System theme" in 
Firefox (and probably similar in other browsers) the browser itself and web 
pages can adjust to dark/light mode automatically (a setting in about:config 
may prevent this, though). You could test this e.g. with GitHub (while not 
logged in!), it works for me. More and more websites nowadays use the 
`prefers-color-scheme` CSS media feature to determine if a user wants a light 
or dark theme.

Understandable. It took me some time to get used to the colors' semantic 
meaning of a second theme. Users who want to keep the current situation could 
just use the same scheme for dark and light mode.

Unfortunately I'm not able to design and implement this. So I'm now slowly 
moving away from Geany because it's cumbersome to manually change the scheme 
each time when toggling light/dark mode.

Geany has served me well during many years and I still think it's a great 
IDE/editor. Thanks a lot for all your work!
