Saves your battery. Easy on eyes. Dark theme is just nicer, what am I missing?

    Dark 'themes’of old were because of flicker on crts. We aren’t using crts now. The contrast of dark themes is anything but easy on the eyes.

      It’s easier on my eyes. I wonder if it has anything to do with vision issues. We need a poll to test the correlation of dark theme preference and astigmatism.

        It’s probably only easier on the eyes with an OLED screen. Anything else and you still get the backlight anyway so the easier on the eyes and battery claims don’t apply.

      My eyes literally burn if I don’t use dark mode

      If it’s “AMOLED Dark”, I agree. But white on dark gray is pretty much easy on the eyes to me.
