[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Dark Mode for maps (Issue #5328)

[Marwin Hochfelsner]

This boils down to two choices: CSS filters yes/no or custom dark mode tiles yes/no. If the filters would be loaded locally from user preference, and when the vector tiles arrive (that styling shouldn't come from CSS anyway), then the default should also be outside the main style file too.

But dark tiles aren't always worth the effort to implement. Tracestrack's dark tiles also invert the hillshading, so it looks like the light is coming from the south east. Thunderforest's transport dark features shadow-glows from buildings at higher zoom levels that seem also pretty unnatural to me. And "overriding" the hillshading with hillshade only tiles doesn't really work either.
