So i was using brave, surfing through all my usual sites, gmail, youtube, spotify and so on, and i closed the browser when i went for lunch. After coming back i went to gmail and everything was black, the animation was black and i thought that it would’ve been an update from google’s side.
But on further examination, few of my buttons were not showing up, they were the same color as my background and I still have them as the same. So i thought it might be a google services only bug. But then i went to open.spotify.com and my pause and play buttons were looking the same too. So to cross verify i tried instagram.com and it was black too.
Then i reset all my brave settings, restarted my laptop but to no avail, i still am stuck with a constant dark mode. Apparently, all my white buttons or backgrounds are switching to black.
Steps:
No steps, i just started the browser and went to a website

Operating System: MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.7
Brave Version: Version 1.27.108 Chromium: 92.0.4515.107 (Official Build) (x86_64)
Additional Information:
- I tried other browsers, Safari, Chrome, but they didn’t show the same response as brave did and it loaded my websites in my normal.
- It started happening today 24th July 2021, around 1:00 PM IST.
- Before i launched brave today, i got a pop up message from my OS, “Verifying brave” and then it launched brave.
- I’ve got Youtube and Google back to my normal, i just had to find the "use dark mode on those respective websites, whereas it didn’t happen on the other websites as they don’t have such a feature.
- I had an extention called Night Eye but it was on the “Only when i click mode”, i removed it later on and tried again but i couldn’t seem to remove the dark mode.
It would be great if i could get some help! Thanks!
