um, darkmode has been available for years. Just needed to sign in.
Someone had a dark mode style (which I just had to disable to get the new dark mode to work), but then you have to be signed in.
Not a 3rd party thing. It has been a wiki setting opened up with login for a long time now. Maybe it had some tweaks needed that finally got completed?

If by trying to change just the color of text and its background, images and other containers would change color too that mean it is a css tagging issue. It is really trivial to correctly color just text and its container with dark theme leaving "custom" things hacked in html inside the page with light theme, people will contribute to make them darkable afterward.
Well that sucks. My favorite Pink Pedia number is Shine On, You Crazy Wiki.
