GOL will now automatically give you a dark theme if needed, as in if you've turned on dark mode and your system correctly reports it as such. It's great, since this means users not even logged in can get the dark theme too automatically :)
Let me know of any weirdness if you're forcing the dark theme from your GOL user settings, as the CSS files were all changed but in my own testing it all works fine.
Want to force test it? Firefox can enable dark mode for websites:
- go to about:config
- add ui.systemUsesDarkTheme integer 1
- enjoy dark mode on websites (like GOL!) that support it

Somehow it worked without adding ui.systemUsesDarkTheme key for me (in my Firefox it's simply missing). My gtk theme is using dark colors with breeze-gtk though, so may be it sets the same thing implicitly.
A small oversight: You can't force the light theme if you wanted to. That is currently be drafted up: https://gitlab.com/liamdawe/gamingonlinux/issues/361
