Description

Auto Dark Mode has the ability to switch themes. Unfortunately, themes cannot contain a screensaver. I have screensavers that I'd use for light mode and others for dark mode. It would be great to have this ability, for the few people like myself who still use screensavers.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Auto Dark Mode currently handles theme switching and extend it to include screensaver switching using the Windows API for screensaver settings.
