I just want them to follow system default for guest user(s).

they probably require an account because they have a system set up in a way where it's mostly a server-side app and ui settings are only stored on the server

This makes more sense for signed in user(s).

No dark mode unless you register, is what I consider to be a asshole design choice.

maybe they have a whole different page for signed in users?

Ok, made an account(used a temp email). Nothing exquisite, just being able to switch between light and dark mode. I expected an option to set the toggle to follow device default after making an account and signing in.

Doesn't even remember which mode was toggled during the previous sign in.
