I hate Clouds - a personal perspective on why I think Clouds suck (loudwhisper.me)

I hope this won't be counted as some form of self-promotion, even though I am sharing a post from my own blog.

As a tech worker who works in a Cloud shop, I wanted to elaborate the many reasons why I find working with Clouds terrible, from multiple points of view.

I tried to organize my thoughts in a (relatively long) post, in which both technical aspects and political aspects (which are very related) are covered.

I am sure many people will have different perspectives, and this could be potentially also a nice prompt for a discussion.

Thanks! I went and tried on my phone and indeed setting Firefox to light mode indeed causes that horrendous and unreadable result. I will need to figure out way, eventually, and provide an alternative light scheme.

I get the same white background on Windows, Chromium and Firefox. Checking settings, I see FF is set to "Automatic" light/dark mode. When I manually select Dark mode, I see the dark background.

I will have a look if there is something that suggests how to "make" a light theme. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the feedback, and same to @ilmagico@lemmy.world and @jg1i@lemmy.world. I fixed the configuration of the site and now the site should be readable even in light mode.

You're welcome! And yes, I can confirm it works in light mode as well :)
