Light Mode vs Dark Mode
Many Operating Systems, websites, applications, etc. now have the option to display in a Light or Dark mode. Do you tend to stick to one or the other, or does it vary?
|
Dark mode on mostly everything. It's not even really because it's easier on my eyes (because it is), but it's also a huge help for battery life reasons. On occasion, I'll switch to light mode on certain applications though if i feel like I'm living perpetually inside a cave, but that's not too often.
|
It's really only a help for battery when using an OLED/AMOLED due to the individually lit pixels actually not using as much power draw (none when it's true black because the pixels are completely off).
Still, I use dark for everything (aside from web pages that don't properly support it because the mixed results with images and text not rendering properly is just...no). Slack finally got a dark theme on Dekstop, and I'm ecstatic about that. Been having to set Dark Mode manually by adjusting their config files. Gets reset each update, but no more of that. :) |

I love dark mode, because my eyes are strained enough as it is, looking at white layouts gives me headaches, unfortunately.
Fair to say, I also set custom pink themes on some places.... still better than the white, IMO. lol |

I do not like being flashbanged so dark mode it is 24/7
|
It's easier for me so if I can use a dark mode I will.
|
Dark mode conserve battery better it also wont hurt your sight as well
|
dark mode everything!! easier on the eyes. not so easier though when you're in broad daylight hehe
|
Light mode. I'm too accustomed and it feels weird to switch for more than a couple of minutes.
|
Dark mode to match my soul.
|
i usually use light mode unless that light mode is way too blinding (discord & twitter)
and then i prefer semidark modes like twitter's blue to pitch black like new reddit's terrible dark mode |
Use dark themes everywhere but here, since it seems there just aren't any.

Dark mode on everything I can.

Because of my autism, I always like having a dark mode. It's much easier to deal with on my eyes than light. I have a tendency to not like a lot of white and what not. I'm actually waiting for Wattpad to come out with a dark mode for people with sensitivity issues. ><
|
It depends on how well they contrast. Like, if it's entirely black then probably not, but I definitely lean towards dark themes because it's easier on my eyes.

I prefer dark mode, especially on OLED/AMOLED screens.
|
Got an iPhone with an OLED screen; dark mode all the way, baby. How could I ever do without it?
Except for on PC. Need to design a few new dark-mode styles first. :) |
Light mode everywhere except Discord, lol. I knew tons of people used dark mode, but didn't realize I was such a minority!
|
White text on a dark background i actually struggle with more so light mode for me when i can. Weird bc its normally the opposite i know but id rather not get headaches from looking at white on dark haha.
|
Dark mode whenever I can cause it's easier on my eyes. But some apps dont awful in dark mode so I'll switch to light for those.
