Disable DarkMode extension on Minerva and Vector 2022
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Given these skins have their own native night mode under implementation, we should stop the extension applying to those. The two are in conflict.

We can re-assess closer to the release to make sure we don't disrupt the night mode experience.

This decision came out of this discussion:
