Flashbanged on opening board in new tab (Firefox)
Homarr release: 1.22.0 (latest)

On opening a new tab with a board, a bright white flash will appear for a split second before the board is fully loaded.
In Homarr settings, dark mode is enabled.

Can I install Homarr on a Raspberry Pi?
Do I understand it correctly, that this is what you see when you open it? So it's only 1/4 of the screen that has the image shown?
Correct, and only for a split second
I can neither reproduce this issue on firefox or chrome. Can you try without a background? Or is it on all pages (and not just this one?)
I'll try without a background right away
Solution
The flash is gone after the background was removed!
The flash is also gone when using other backgrounds!

Hmm okay, then I guess it's probably something similar to https://github.com/homarr-labs/homarr/issues/2884
So a firefox issue that we are unable to fix, I suggest you use another one (the one you used looked like a pretty big (in size) one)
