Universal Settings

Posted by ContemplativePanda

I think having the theme settings be universal as long as you are logged into your account would be nice. For example, if I log in on my browser I have Dark Theme set. However, if I log in on my phone it defaults to light theme.

I assume as more settings are added (e.g - turn off custom group stylesheets if those are added) it woud be nice to not have to go reconfigure settings on various devices.

    Someone might prefer different themes on different devices. It doesn't seem like too much of an effort to set up unless you use strange computers all the time.

      Having a 'set as account default' option would be nice, though I haven't encountered the issue myself.

        This would probably be the simplest, honestly. Have an account default and have an override option for the logged in device.

          Oh certainly. Any Universal Settings should be toggleable. Sorry I didn't specify that.

      It's not, but it would be convienent. I just hate choosing a setting in one place and then when I go back on a different device or a later time and it's different it's just annoying to change it...

Another example is sorting the comments by something different other than most votes, that could be a profile settings that would be nice to have universal.
