Is a dark mode for this site realistically possible and desirable, and can we in any way support its introduction?
Yes, I want dark mode on RPG.SE
I don't really have anything else interesting to say, nor do I have any knowledge about what it takes to implement it. I'm leaving this answer to simply measure support ...

Can our badges be some symbol that's more recognizable than just featureless hexagons?

Can our badges be some symbol that's more recognizable than just featureless hexagons?

D&D 5th Edition Wikia - favicon
Very probably not copied
I took a look at the two icons, zoomed to 1600%. I looked especially at the edges of the lines to see if there were matching aliasing patterns. An icon can be recoloured, but ...

D&D 5th Edition Wikia - favicon
They are not necessarily the same.
RPG.SE meta's favicon is a gray d20 outline. I'm not able to upload the .ico file here, but it has a MD5 hash c7f81da9029121051950ae912546a092.

Interface problem with disabled side bar?
This is not a bug. The navigation is not supposed to show up where you've highlighted; nothing makes it show up there.

D&D 5th Edition Wikia - favicon
I mean... you'd have to ask whoever runs that wikia. Only they could answer where they chose the favicon or whether they took it from here.
