When I went onto the homepage about 10 minutes ago my whole page is light mode; going to my settings I discover I get a nice error and roblox has some how changed dark mode to light mode. With more digging unlocking my settings have made it to where no button works and it just becomes grey.
My friend who originally owned this account and gave it to me was a girl, when unlocking my settings to change the gender this is what happens.
These are just my observations, I dont know if this even helps to anything.

Lol super fun fact, there’s two layers of where the theme is applied on Roblox.com . The DOM body has the theme defined as a class which determines the icon color in the nav and the page content color, but the nav+topbar itself has the same class also defined on its sub-element, which changes its colors in isolation. I’m not sure how they end up out of sync, web is a nightmare.

Same issue is currently happening to me. Getting a pop up “unknown error” when opening settings and attempting to switch back to a dark theme. My eyes are burning.

The issue seems to be getting resolved from what I see my whole page is dark now, so somethings going right.

Made a more extensive report on the underlying issue here:
The User Settings API (https://apis.roblox.com/user-settings-api/v1/user-settings) is currently experiencing a critical issue with its rate limiting, resulting in a status code of 500 or 429 for every request. This problem is causing several significant disruptions:
The homepage falls back to Light Mode, failing to respect the Dark Mode setting as it fails to retrieve it from this API.
The Privacy and Parental Controls tabs in Roblox settings fail to load.
Users see a red banner at the top of …
Would’ve just responded to this with extra info but the OP only scrapes the surface of the issue, so thought I’d make a new one

Also, some of the icons on the top bar appear black like they would in light mode, even when the top bar is in dark mode.
Like shown in this screenshot:
Edit: Didn’t realize the original post pointed that out with the red squares, sorry.

It appears game pages are also completely failing to load with a Server Error 500.
It’s very possible that Roblox isn’t just experiencing a partial service disruption in terms of settings, but rather something more.
What url are you referring to, and how frequent is it happening?

Roblox just went down repeatedly for a few seconds over the past ~30 mins. It seems okay now but it’s crazily inconvenient and needs to be fixed

Oh, at the time I was referring to the
https://www.roblox.com/games/id URL, which seemingly would return an Error 500 at random times.
I apologize for the late reply.

Yep it appears to be resolved. It was most likely due the the outage during that day.
