A WebKit blog post by the Safari engineering team explained how the feature analyzes page color histograms, builds a luminosity-inverting color matrix, and transforms SVGs, gradients, and simple bitmap logos while leaving canvases and dark-declared sites untouched.
“Almost 40% of web page loads are from users in dark mode, and yet only 10% of page loads support it.”
