Persistent preference/theme settings
Having to re-enter display appearance theme, unlock and password order preferences, etc. every time you log in or reboot is frustrating and unproductive.

This is an annoying and stupid implementation.

This is so frustrating. This stuff needs to be asked ONCE. On the first sign in. That is all.

I agree, it's quite frustrating.
In my opinion, a new user (i.e., someone setting up a device for the first time) should be asked about their preferences (such as theme, autofill, autosave, etc.) and those choices should be saved as their default settings. However, users shouldn't need to reconfigure all these settings every time they log in from a new device, or even from a known device after logging out and logging back in.
If users want to deviate from their default settings on a specific device, they can simply adjust them. Most users are aware that apps typically have a settings menu—there’s no need to present all these options every time they log in.

Is it possible to change the way proton pass sets its theme?
WHY: because when using Private window (Firefox) or Incognito (Chrome) the "select your theme" pop-up opens every single time.
MORE INFO: as of now the preference for the theme in "proton pass" is saved in the browsers "local storage" with key "settings::0" and the preference for the theme in "proton mail/calendar/drive/vpn..." is saved in the browsers "cookies" with name "theme".
When the theme in "proton pass" is selected the value of "settings::0" updates and there is NO network activity, it is NOT stored in the server.
And when the theme in "All Settings > Account > Appearance > Theme" is selected the the value of "theme" updates AND there IS a network request to the server, it IS stored in the server.
So Is it possible to change the way proton pass sets its theme?
