Is there any way to set default browsing settings ?

[SpaghettiMonkey]

I'm always using the dark theme and post flow features, and each time I start my instance I have to toggle these in the settings page. Is there any way to set these on by default ?

As mentioned in #561, you can edit the default settings in client/js/model/settings.js. If I got it right, to achieve what you're looking for you should change darkTheme and postFlow to true.

Don't forget you have to manually build the client if you edit the source code instead of using the base docker image.

You can modify the minified js in the image to change defaults.

rename gz file to gz.old and use vi to modify app.min.js
setting this part like this:
{listPosts:{safe:1,sketchy:1,unsafe:1},upscaleSmallPosts:1,endlessScroll:1,keyboardShortcuts:1,transparencyGrid:0,fitMode:"fit-both",tagSuggestions:0,autoplayVideos:1,postsPerPage:50,tagUnderscoresAsSpaces:0,darkTheme:1,postFlow:1}
results in:
