Yeah, being forced to use Dark mode would suck.
Idk how people don't go blind on light mode, it's too painful not to use dark mode for me.
I used to prefer light mode until I first got into MUDs.
Not because of anything about the interface or mechanics, but because I got REALLY into them. Several consecutive nights reading digital text until 4AM makes you appreciate dark mode.
Light mode is for people with healthy computer habits

Let's have both! At the same time!
That's how it functions I feel. I hate dark mode because of it, I mean just dim your screen if "light mode" is too bright. Noo we must feel like hackerman in shell mode I guess.
Okay so i can dim my brightness and only have half as much eye pain or i can use dark mode and feel comfortable?? Fuck me i guess for prefer light text on what i need to read and darkspace for the empty stuff im not reading on the scree
You didn't understand what I was saying.
The problem with dark mode is that everything does not have a dark mode, and now because it's so popular, not a light mode. Some website will be in light mode, some softs will be in dark mode, textpad? Light mode.
So when you're working you go dark, light, dark, light, which is the worst of everything.
I have plenty of natural light in my room
natural light
I don't understand. Did LEDs start growing out of the grass?
Some whacko architect designed my house and office with holes in the walls. It's irritating tbh
Ew, this guy uses Windows!
It's not like that I swear!
Obvious security vulnerability that's just professional incompetence
Fucking contractors, right... I had one OD on his lunch break out front when I was getting my house worked on.
Wtf, this pivot gave me whiplash
Real, he was the one dude actually showing up and doing the work too...
Was it recent? Is it hanging with you?
< (o_o)>
It was a few years ago. Was a shitty day though.
So being drunk affects how you use light/dark mode?
I don't get the joke
Holy hell. Even the term "natural light" as some product in the US.
Is it any good?
It is not.
Do you change to a night mode setting? I'm ok if someone prefers light mode. But natural light, well, it doesn't happen at night. I hate the "eye comfort" filters since they just make everything look orange. Do you use that? Or just blind your eyes at night?
Dark mode at night. Switches automatically
So, you prefer light mode in an environment that has lots of natural light until it doesn't. Welp, makes perfect sense.
Maybe your screen brightness is too high? I prefer 15% and 25+ feels like looking into the sun
Is your monitor back lit by burning magnesium!?
Yeah i prefer lower brightness on light mode of course, but dark mode is just straight up comfortable for me to use all day.
Batman voice: How do you sleep at night!?
It's a pain if it is sunny outside
The main pain point is still discord itself tho
This misses your point, but I've always preferred light mode in bright environments and dark mode in dimmer environments, with literally the single exception of Discord, whose light mode is totally unusable despite a bunch of iterations.
"Light mode, you say? How about 1px wide fonts, a background so close to #fff as makes no difference, and contrasting elements with basically no contrast at all? IS THIS LIGHT ENOUGH FOR YOU?"
Hes switching him to light mode
I can only think of Harley Quinn's Bane when I see him referenced now.
Also, just the other day I finally made the connection that Tom Hardy played both Bane and Eddie Brock. He really has a thing for Venom!
I’m pretty excited for the Clayface movie but I fear this show has done permanent damage to how I imagine the character now.
Every show i seen has such a different take on him. Caped crusader has him as a failed actor and creature commando had him a gamer with scary take on his abilities.
I loved harley quinn show, it was one of the best adult animation show in years.
The ableist way folk shame light mode users... smh my head
Some of us need light to see and I'm getting very tired of it being a punchline.
Not to ruin the stmosphere but... Do you know what ableist means? Or are you just joking with that comment?
I know exactly what ableist means and I wasn't joking. Some of us need light mode to be able to see and I'm very tired of it being a joke.
20 years ago I was publicly shamed by my whole team for wanting dark mode. Recently found out my entire current team does dark mode. Its just whatever popular. Im waiting for something silly like green mode to in favor.
Is the next theme not red mode? (Also known as blue light filters)
25% greener mode
Ableist?
Light mode users are the ones that are able to adjust their screen brightness.
Beige owl,gruvbox,cattpuccin just don't use lame themes
Just hurts my eyes thinking about it lol
