Force any site into dark mode with Microsoft Edge

Microsoft Edge is set to introduce a feature that allows users to enforce dark mode on any website as part of the "Web Remix" initiative. This feature enables users to customize web pages, including simplifying articles, providing summaries, organizing recipes into shopping lists, converting prices to local currencies, and updating webpage appearances. It operates locally and can be toggled on or off via a button in the address bar. Users can access Web Remix by enabling specific flags in Edge Canary. While it effectively applies dark mode to websites lacking native support, results may vary, and some elements may be altered in ways that are not ideal. Premium extensions like Dark Reader offer more nuanced dark mode customization compared to Web Remix.

I tried the new Google Photos Android app redesign, and now I want it in every Google app

Google has started rolling out a design update for the Google Photos app on Android, changing the navigation bar from a ribbon-style format to a floating pill shape. This new design includes a circular button for search functionality and offers a more intuitive user experience. The navigation bar remains fixed during scrolling, allowing for more screen space and reducing confusion. Users can access three main views: Photos, Collections, and Create. While this update enhances the app's aesthetic and functionality, it diverges from Google's Material 3 Expressive guidelines regarding the recommended number of in-app destinations. Other Google applications still use the older ribbon-style design.

A hamburger menu has replaced the Saved shortcut, providing a new “Your activity” screen that consolidates translation history and saved translations. The text input screen has a modern aesthetic, with recent translations visible within the input card, and the results page features individual cards for source and translated text.

Compatibility updates include experimental support for Reddit (version 2026.25.0), YouTube Music (version 9.24.51), and YouTube (version 21.25.523).
