Add QWebEngineSettings::AutoDarkModeEnabled (I4b3512dc) · Gerrit Code Review

(yes, I'm pretty sure that'd mean toggling dark mode without restart, and most likely per-domain dark mode toggling)

WIP: ChromeDriver v3 (Ib8a40e1f) · Gerrit Code Review

Aug 05 '23 18:08 The-Compiler

Add initial internal version page (I0271ce6e) · Gerrit Code Review

Add setting method to set image animation policy (I8b3ab606) · Gerrit Code Review

Note we can expose this as an option needing a restart with earlier Qt versions:

python3 -m qutebrowser --temp-basedir --qt-flag blink-settings=imageAnimationPolicy=1 https://giphy.com/categories

where (with both Qt 5 and Qt 6), 0 is the default (kImageAnimationPolicyAllowed), 1 animates once (kImageAnimationPolicyAnimateOnce) and 2 disables animations (kImageAnimationPolicyNoAnimation).
