Additionally, Bitcoin Core does not yet change appearance when macOS "dark mode" is activated. +The node's known peers are persisted to disk in a file called `peers.dat`. The +format of this file has been changed in a backwards-incompatible way in order to +accommodate the storage of Tor v3 and other BIP155 addresses. This means that if +the file is modified by 0.21.0 or newer then older versions will not be able to +read it. Those old versions, in the event of a downgrade, will log an error +message that deserialization has failed and will continue normal operation +as if the file was missing, creating a new empty one.
