I use dark mode only when I can't connect my IPS display.

My notebook sadly has an OLED display, so dark mode reduces energy consumption and will make last the screen longer before burn in effects are visible.

Dark mode gives me severe after images. Light mode is Ok.

I learned to take a picture of darkness, set that as my background picture, and then set the brightness at absolute minimum. Works everywhere except in direct sunlight, when trying to take a picture, but my new camera app has a feature to go to full brightness on launch ,hopefully that will fix that, and it occurs to me to look for the same feature in a photo album.

To light mode users: why are you cowering away from the flashlight I'm shining in your eyes? More light means you see better.

Dark mode is the light moat of my life.

Excited to read this article. I clicked. It loaded. White background. I closed immediately because it isn’t on a dark mode and hurt my eyes. Maybe I’m to old (30’s) with poor eyes or maybe I’m cranky.
