Dark mode hurts my eyes and reliably gives me a headache. I can’t understand why anyone prefers to read white text on a dark field.

    I can’t stand dark mode. A lot of things that were high contrast in light mode become illegible to me. Like dark blue text on a black background. Dark blue also tends to be the default color for keywords in most programming languages.

      In fairness dark modes with blue text are really badly implemented dark modes.

      Of course, I dislike a well implemented light mode (any background color other than blazing searing white) a lot less than a badly implemented one.

      Edit: I’m really just saying I wish developers and designers would get better at their jobs.

      The only place I see that happen anymore is in PuTTy. IDEs and text editors have pretty good dark themes these days.
