Simplified mode in Browser shall follow the device theme mode

• /e/ version: 0.16-q
• Device model(s): h850

Summary

Simplified mode in Browser shall follow the device theme dark/light mode.

The current behaviour inherently claims the dark mode is the best option for reading. That shall not be the correct premise.

The problem

Steps to reproduce

• Open a page that supports simplified view, usually a news article.
• activate simplified view in light and in dark mode

What is the current behavior?

Simplified mode mimics dark mode in both device themes

What is the expected correct behavior?

Simplified mode takes the mode theme. Shows dark text on light background in light device mode.

Or, rename the option to 'simplify and display dark'
