I always wondered why light mode became so painful to use and its cos CRTs and old LCD displays werent that bright so white was more of a grey. The problem with light mode now is every fekin display is 3 billion nits so it just scorches my eyes. The white in turn then needs to be more grey for it to be accurate to what ye olde computers looked like or at least let me tune the colour myself
This makes so much sense in retrospect. It wasn't until the last ten years my (admittedly very sensitive) eyes started bothering me while using a computer. I'm in dark mode, yellowed display, brightness all the way down, and it's like staring into the sun for me.
