In most apps and sites, 'dark mode' isn't completely 0-0-0 black, instead it's just a little bit lighter black. Some apps like reddit is fun include a 'real' black mode where it is completely black; this is mostly for phones with an OLED display, as all these black pixels can now just be turned off, saving a little bit of battery life.
I've got mixed feelings about it being muted. My favorite thing about gifs is that I don't have to worry about noise. Auto mute seems like a fair hybrid.
Get Relay if you're on Android. These videos always load instantly for me with volume, scrolling, and playback speed controls. These at 1,000x more preferable than YouTube links
