Google Photos Web App Gets Dark Mode

Google Photos for web now supports a dark theme, joining other Google web apps like Search, YouTube, Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and Gemini. Users can enable it through a new "Appearance" menu in settings, with options for Light, Dark, and "Use device default." The dark theme makes the transition to the image viewer less jarring.
