Solved Get rid of white flash when launching browser that is in Daark Mode?

Hi. I doubt there is a solution for the problem below but I have been surprised in the past so I will take a shot.

This happens on any browser. Set it to open speed dial on startup. Use a dark theme. Set speed dial image to a dark background. When launching the browser you get a horrible white flash before the speed dial loads. I have my system set to a dark theme. But apparently every browser interprets a blank page as a white page. It kind of kicks the hell out of the dark theme when you experience this white flash. My default browser is Edge latest stable version. My speed dial is Fast Dial for chrome.

Anyone have a technique to avoid this flashbulb effect?

You are not alone. Here is a similar thread on the Vivaldi forum:
White flash when loading website from speed dial

Suggest things to try:

1. Disable Fast Dial (temporarily)
2. Update Fast Dial
3. Report the issue at the developer site or feedback hub.
4. Change the browser start page.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have noticed Edge to be very touchy. A new version and sometimes I lose all my dial thumbnails. The "easy" way to get them back is Macrium Restore. For some reason there is no "refresh all" in Fast Dial. I guess I could try restore session on startup but I have the feeling I would still get the flicker. I am thinking it is a hard-wired programmer assumption to set the background to 0xFFFFFF for a blank page.
