If you are on Linux you should be able to create a shell script that change your system color to dark or light depending on the time. On gnome there may even be some extension that do that already.

If you use Windows there may also be options to do the same with task scheduler.

They turn white for me (or green for sticky posts). However, there may be some combination of dark mode and theme setting that I've overlooked. The #app id should have the attribute data-bs-theme="dark" if you use darkly. If your entire system use dark mode it should also work by default if your system tells your browser that you prefer dark themes. (But data-bs-theme will still be set to light unless one go to the settings and change the theme to darkly.)

Rather than manually adding communities, could it be made to fetch active/hot communities from for example: https://lemmy.world/api/v3/community/list?sort=Active ?

Try with the invidious instances or piped instances that are the closest to you.

While talking about alternative front ends.

I'm wondering why websites keep using fake paywalls when they can use a real one where the content isn't available until user verification.

Sandbox your browser in a VM or something. Don't use the same browser/VM for banking/personal stuff and everyday browsing. Most browsers should work. (Except Chrome/Edge/Opera/Yandex). Personally I prefer Firefox. LibreWolf can also be an option, but you have to opt-in to see videos with DRM etc. Tor is also an option, but the downsides are captchas and websites that block you.

If you're even more extreme you can also use uBlock Origin in "hard mode" and the no script toggle. That will block JavaScript and prevent websites from connecting to any 3rd parties, anything from tracking servers to CDNs. That will definitely break websites, so you'll have to know how to unbreak them, which can be quite the learning curve for some people.

Why not Chrome/Edge/Opera/Yandex you say? Chrome is owned by an advertising company. Edge tracks you plenty. Opera and Yandex are made by companies from authoritarian states.

Probably an arctic fox you heard.
