Hi, I love Congo and was very excited to upgrade to version 2.

I'm trying to force "light mode" but am experiencing the page switching to dark mode on a Mac device that has dark mode in the OS settings. I'm wondering if it's possible to override the OS settings, or whether those will prevail. A live version is here.

My params.toml looks like this:

defaultAppearance = "light" autoSwitchAppearance = false showAppearanceSwitcher = true

When I develop locally and view it on localhost, it indeed appears in light mode. but upon deploying, it switches to dark mode on my Mac with OS preferences for dark mode.

I'm hoping that I'm reading this page correctly and using default and autoSwitchAppearance right.

When I change my Mac OS preferences from light to dark, it switches to light mode. Thanks for any insights!!!
