Open the avatar menu at the top right. Appearance sets the theme, Accessibility sets motion and text size, and Language sets the interface language.
Switch between light and dark
- Select your avatar.
- Select Appearance. The item already shows the current setting, for example Appearance: Dark.
- Select Dark theme or Light theme.
The same switch is on the Preferences page, labelled Dark mode, at /en/account-page/preferences.
Reduce motion or change text size
- Select your avatar, then Accessibility.
- Under Motion, choose Use device setting or Reduce motion.
- Under Text size, choose a size.

Change the language

If it did not work
- Theme, language and text size are stored per browser. A different browser or a private window starts from the defaults again.
- Signing out keeps your theme, language and sidebar preferences; it clears everything else for that browser.
- No languages found means nothing matches what you typed in the search box. Clear it and scroll the list.
