    No. Dark mode is just a new hype that’s why it gets so much traction. None of it’s alleged benefits can be scientifically proven, it’s nothing but personal taste.

      With OLED screens, pure black backgrounds are amazing for reading in a pitch black environment.

      None of it’s alleged benefits can be scientifically proven, it’s nothing but personal taste.

      Not to mention, they literally scientifically proved that dark mode extends battery life with OLED screens. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3458864.3467682

          You’re the one saying there aren’t scientific benefits when there actually are. You’re the one who literally said something factually incorrect.

      It’s easier on my eyes. Which is anecdotal, but a large enough portion of the population use dark modes for the same reason. That is not coincidence, and it’s not something I’d write off as merely being hype.

      There’s nothing new about dark mode either. Wikipedia is just slow in the uptake. Besides Wikipedia, dark modes have existed for more than a decade.
