Apps don't respect theme

For some reason: https://github.com/thundernest/k-9/blob/9f25f27066d94fb6647c47b1c4f6913305294afd/app/ui/base/src/main/java/com/fsck/k9/ui/base/ThemeManager.kt

Seems apps check for sdk 29 before checking our theme. Don't know why, sdk 8 is when it was introduced. Maybe have to bump to 29 and spoof it?

Dark theme in 8.0 was an experimental feature that most aftermarket systems made available. It wasn't official until 9.0.
Not much to really to handle this without breaking things or maybe (ab)using RROs.

Best solution is probably just to ask the app devs to lower the check if possible. I did so for Briar for example.

@SkewedZeppelin Drats, I was afraid of that. Guess I'll have to explore this more then. There are some like k-9 that I know would probably check lower, but others like say Teams, definitely are lost causes and need that heavy handed approach on the OS side.
