that makes 100% sense

 

[franzhype]

does light mode even exists nowadays? holy

 

[ma0]

It is currently 2 in the morning if I use light mode my eyes will literally melt

 

[whitetaildeer]

light mode. just because white is my favorite color

 

[parasite_eve]

Thank you for the psa - just switched over to dark lol

 

[Hearth3]

Dark mode everywhere!
f.lux (windows) will shift the quantity of blue light emitted by your screen depending on the time of day. It's exactly the same effect as wearing anti blue light glasses without having to wear the glasses and for free.
Dark Reader firefox / chrome will force a dark theme on all website.

 

[LostLily]

Thanks for informing us , I just switched to darkmode

 

[yousaidimsweet]

technically dark mode but i'm using light mode rn

 

[Orc]

Dark mode, my vision is already shit, don't want to ruin it even further.

 

[leloyon]

I use dark mode for everything. Light mode singes my eyeballs.

 

[EternalShore]

I'd prefer it in early 2000s mode~ >:3

 

[WhiteRabbit]

Dark, like my soul.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

What would that look like?

 

[Forever Sleep]

DARK! Like my mood...

I had to link this intro...

 

[EternalShore]

What would that look like?

idk~ either Frutiger Aero, like other early 2000s forums~, or like AOL and similar things like Internet Explorer with tons of neat and more detailed buttons and stuff~ :) rather than these simplified ones and rather bland site design! :( maybe make it more customizable with different backgrounds and stuff as can be done with Classic mode on MAL and old YT! :D there's sooo much stuff one can do! >w<

 

[Forveleth]

Dark mode on EVERYTHING. I have really fucked up eyeballs and staring at bright white backgrounds is so terrible for me. I can actually read things in dark mode!

 

[EvisceratedJester]

Dark mode because I'm not a piece of shit who probably kidnaps and eats babies.

 

[OptingOutSmiling]

Thanks for the info, just checked out dark mode. Really much cooler, but the light version is friendlier to my eyes nowadays. Since only about two months ago, I had to start wearing glasses and the light mode makes more sense

Yeah, having more customizability is always a good thing in my book. A more old-school look would have the added benefit of possibly making it useable on more devices, that otherwise wouldn't be able to handle such a modern design.

Dark mode because I'm not a piece of shit who probably kidnaps and eats babies.

This is all 100% absolutely true. There have been zero studies on the correlation between baby-eating and using light mode, but only because all the academic journals have been bought by Big Light Mode, we all know it's true. Take a look at John Wayne Gacy and try to convince me he doesn't look like a light mode user.

That would probably be a good way to know the difference between a true Jester and a clown pretending to be one.

 

[taysontheory]

Dark for long reading / at night and white sometimes if it is short reading during the day

 

[Promised Heaven]

Dark, but especially AMOLED. This is the only place I use that doesn't have AMOLED.

 

[dragonofenvy]

I am a light-mode heathen.

You would need to turn onto blue light settings and make your screen a little more hueish yellow for this than with dark mode to be honest…

 

[depressed-pos]

i use dark mode on every site/app that has it available. i love to lay in the dark and the bright screen is too much on my eyes

 

[Custos]

There's a dark mode?

There's a dark mode?

Wait, now I remember. On dark mode you can't see shit unless you turn your brightness up.
