Dark Search missing in 21H2
I know it is not what you want but if you want "dark themed" search install Open-Shell with Fluent-Metro skin

StartIsBack has sorted my only real gripes with 11's taskbar, start menu, context menus and "look"
Openshell (with the fluent metro theme) is a free alternative that gives a similar look and a ton of customizability.

Windows 11 dark theme is too dark!
None of it is user friendly, but if you can follow directions you can be up and running in 30 minutes. I recommend SecureUxTheme which patches the necessary files in memory.

Anybody use 3rd party dark theme?
The last discussion of dark theme in this sub was like 6-7 years ago, so I wonder if anyone use it now. I found two option for the installer 1. SecureUXTheme and 2. UltraUXThemePatcher, but for the theme it self I haven't found what I'm looking for which is dark and minimal theme.

I just want a dark Task Manager that's all
Instead of UXThemePatcher, you should use SecureUXTheme.

Black screen pulling me out of fullscreen video / game and freezing
Hard to explain, been happening since today after I installed a few apps, namely Ear Trumpet from Microsoft Store, tried installing and using WindowBlinds from a YouTube QoL recommendations video here and here but uninstalled after it didn't work, as well as Black In Black / BIB here + UltraUXThemePatcher + SecureUXTheme to try and get BIB to work (which it didn't), and finally Twinkle Tray to adjust desktop brightness like you can on laptops. My best guess is the WindowBlinds app fucking something up, or Twinkle Tray turning off my screen when it goes to black mode, seemingly coming back on when I press my keyboard or mouse, and then freezing and accepting no responses.

Windows 11 dark mode is not no dark. How did they forget to implement dark mode in basic dialog/popup windows?
Incidentally, I use said SecureUxTheme patcher to solve this problem: https://github.com/namazso/SecureUxTheme.
