Some images on web pages are being inverted for no reason.

Hello, as of the recent theme update I've been having this issue where some parts of pages are color inverted for seemingly no reason. I've no clue how to fix this and it happens on multiple websites. Changing theme does nothing. Here's an example:

@whateverfitshere Also happens in a clean profile?

[DoctorG]

@whateverfitshere Any link to such page for a test?

[whateverfitshere]

@guigirl Yep, just tested that and it also happened in a clean profile.

@DoctorG https://tftactics.gg/tierlist/team-comps

Here's what that page looks like for me (and with a clean profile). Also happens with discord icons on the browser version.

@whateverfitshere I can not reproduce your issue, i tested with 5.0 Stable and 5.1 Snapshot / Win 11 21H2.

In Vivaldi try to disable Settings → Webpages → Use of Hardware Accleeration and restart, to check if GPU's HWA is the cause.

Is you graphics driver the latest from chipset/gpu producer'S web site?,

Had you changed any settings in vivaldi://flags?

@doctorg Turns out it was the "Auto dark mode for web contents" in flags that was doing it. Changed it from enabled to "enabled with selective inversion of non-image elements" and that fixed my problem.

Congrats, you solved it on your own

Then you didn't really test in a clean profile, did you?

@pathduck Well I followed the instructions here exactly (https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/10388/refreshing-or-cleaning-your-profile) and when I opened the browser again, everything was missing like it should be. Is this process not what you do to make a clean profile?

[Pathduck]

@whateverfitshere Well, unfortunately flags are actually stored for the entire User Data folder in the Local State JSON file, hence inherited by all profiles.

	"browser": {
		"enabled_labs_experiments": [
			"media-router-cast-allow-all-ips@2",
			"password-import@1"
		],
		"enabled_labs_experiments_origin_lists": {
			"unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure": ""
		},
		"last_redirect_origin": "",
		"shortcut_migration_version": "86.0.4240.38"
	},

The topic you linked does not take into account that the user has changed experimental flags... There's a good reason the page says WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES AHEAD!

The official documentation on profiles is:
https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/tools/user-profiles/
But again it would not help in your case. Users are not really expected to go around changing flags without knowing what they're doing.
