Gabriella Johnson (ID: 0000001d11d88fed) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/12/2023 it works! the only thing is you can't see the text when you're typing a comment, and the menu for creating a new pin is a little messy. but otherwise it looks and operates just like dark mode on the app! if it doesn't change automatically try refreshing the page.

nebula (ID: 0000003d9cc17a47) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 08/26/2023 you cant type anything except for the search bar without it blending into the background (ex. leaving a comment, making a pin, naming a board.. the text is gray and not visible unless highlighted...) it was tolerable at first but it got too annoying and i had to uninstall. if you dont really do much commenting or pin creation then this shouldnt be a problem for you
