Yes but I think the best place to fix this issue is in Chromium upstream. I don't think it is Brave specific.

[urbenlegend]

@bbondy But I believe this issue happened after #16078 was fixed. The default color of blank tabs was changed to avoid flashing white at people in dark mode. brave://apps was perfectly fine before that.

oh ok, so it sounds like it's brave specific then 👍

Recently, Brave has been showing a completely black background instead of a gray one:

The background should follow the color theme instead of being dark all the time.

@urbenlegend
I would like to work on this issue.
Will you assign this to me?

[urbenlegend]

@ParagGhatage I do not have permissions to do so. I am not a Brave employee btw.

@urbenlegend are you seeing black background or gray?

I tried with light colors and dark colors and got black on both
