making it a per-profile settings does not exclude making it available per-device or per-visit. it’s not especially difficult to store a flag in localStorage or a cookie. hell, you can even use CSS to detect OS dark mode preference settings and have it change automatically with no user input at all.
I just want them to follow system default for guest user(s).
they probably require an account because they have a system set up in a way where it’s mostly a server-side app and ui settings are only stored on the server
This makes more sense for signed in user(s).
No dark mode unless you register, is what I consider to be a asshole design choice.
Ok, made an account(used a temp email). Nothing exquisite, just being able to switch between light and dark mode. I expected an option to set the toggle to follow device default after making an account and signing in.
Doesn’t even remember which mode was toggled during the previous sign in.

Doesn’t modern CSS allow you to follow system settings?

maybe they have a whole different page for signed in users?
