Motivation
Most operating systems and apps by now offer "scheduled display modes", i.e. they can switch between light or dark themes automatically depending on the time of the day. I personally find this very convenient and quickly got used to it. As a consequence, I manually enter d2jsp's setting to switch between a light and a dark theme in the morning and evening, respectively.

Suggestion
Quite simple: Add the ability to specify a second "Display Style" for a selected time period in the settings. This would allow further customization and improve the user experience for all users who, like me, already enjoy (and use) automatic theming on their devices. No more eye bleeding when checking d2jsp at nights but still having a light theme active... :D

Optionally, of course.

Hey Qry :) I use dark mode whole day, but there could be situations when light mode is useful (bright light outside?), although if settings of browser or device are already depending on time, I think it should work on any visited website? I don't know though, when it's optionally then yes:)

For d2jsp, it doesn't - would be sweet (and even better than my suggestion) if it did - not sure if feasible with the custom forums software, though.

Haven't voted.

Can you not just change your background settings with an image instead of using a Light/Dark mode?
Don't mind me... I don't use the light/dark mode and I get annoyed with one of my movie site(s) that automatically change it.
