Description

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e5b69c23-9d15-45d1-9683-6bf4ea21b216

When switching between the system Light and Dark appearance, some applications do not update their theme correctly.

Some applications remain in the previous theme or render incorrectly. For example:

Nautilus stays in Dark mode after switching to Light mode.
Some applications display incorrect CSS/styling after the theme change.

(I could not find something similar to my issue i don'tl know what to search sorry if this is a duplicate report)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the system Light/Dark appearance switch and checking the reported Nautilus behavior and incorrect CSS/styling in affected applications. Done means applications consistently update to the selected theme without remaining in the previous mode or rendering incorrectly.
