As title suggests, the dark mode is missing when launching GZDoom, it was enabled by default in previous versions.

This is intentional. The upcoming release of gzdoom will release with a refreshed theme in order to differentiate itself from other ports using the same launcher. A plurality of current developers agree that the default theme will be a light one. There are talks about adding theme switching, but that is still in early stages.

Theme switching would be nice or it's better to detect which Windows theme you use and keep it as default.
