Dark Mode loading issue / flash on Android app launch (Issue #58200) – Any known workaround?

Hi everyone,

I opened an issue on GitHub regarding an annoying UI/rendering behavior on cold start with Dark Mode enabled on Android: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/58200

You can see the full launch sequence and the glitch/rendering delay in the video on GitHub. I already tried enabling “Force Dark Mode for Web Contents” in brave://flags and the in-app dark theme settings, but that didn’t help.

While the team is looking into this, is there any other known workaround, flag, or setting that mitigates this behavior?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
