I've just upgraded to 22.10 and one thing is annoying the hell out of me: the dark mode setting in the new "quick settings" pod is switching off all the time (I even can't figure out when it happens). Did anyone noticed the same?

    "Did anyone noticed the same?" Is that all you want to know? If so... it is an answer that if "no" is likely to be a temporary "no". We do not do surveys on AU. Describe the problem as best as possible and ask for a possible solution or workaround. OR what would be getting quicker results: file a bug report against ""quick settings"-pod Then again it is also likely that if this is a bug it will get fixed anyways. Prepare for a couple of days where bug fixes get released. You are paying the price for installing so quickly ;-) I tend to wait a few days myself if it is an interim release – Rinzwind Oct 21 '22 at 12:54
  • @Rinzwind Actually it would be enough - if that's a common problem I'll just wait for the official fix, if not - will have to figure it out by myself. But I guess any reasonable user with a solution would just post it :) – iptak Oct 21 '22 at 13:35

    I upgrade to 22.10 last night and have the same problem. Looks like only the new "Quick Settings" menu of Gnome 43 and the "Notifications/calendar menu" are affected, other aplications like Nautilus works fine. I cant figure out any kind of pattern or cause/effect for this bug. Let's wait for a oficial fix. – Lucas Alf Oct 21 '22 at 19:27

    Yeah, happened to me with the Beta on a Dell Inspiron 5437. I thought it would be a problem with extensions and themes, but even in a barebones installation it happened. – Rodrigo Stücker Oct 21 '22 at 18:04

    Thanks for the comments, in my case the option turns off when I open the Settings app. – iptak Oct 22 '22 at 06:30

    yes, I noticed this and reported it as soon as I upgraded. Until this is fixed, you basically want to set it to Dark using the Quick Menu and avoid going into the Appearance section of the Settings app (gnome-control-center). You can add your experience here, it might help giving the bug some extra visibility with the devs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1993874 – Batwam Oct 28 '22 at 14:52

I noticed the same right now. Maybe I found the solution. Just install GNOME Tweaks, go to Appearance, and make sure you set your default and Legacy Applications themes to your own.

It appears that this bug is caused by the User Themes extension when you haven't configured it.
