Unlike most houses, in mine the Fox won't change the default browser.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 63 points 2 months ago

The Fox is the default browser.

Controversial opinion: if your monitor is set to the proper brightness for the room's ambient light, light or dark theme becomes a matter of preference. If you're in a completely dark room with your brightness set to 100%, then of course a light theme won't work.

[-] Johanno@feddit.org 21 points 2 months ago

Ok now sell me a monitor that tracks the light level like my phone and adjusts its brightness accordingly.

[-] kamen@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

There are actually some models already with a built in ambient light sensor. I don't know how much of a convenience it would be, whether it would be distracting if small changes in ambient light make the brightness go up and down all the time. I personally prefer changing it manually - I have a macro pad with knobs which are mapped to do that.

Depends on the person's eyes as well. I have a pretty bad astigmatism that makes dark mode god awful to read.

But i have to have my monitor on max brightness else i can't see anything due to my dark theme!

[-] jimitsoni18@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

The problem I have with light theme is contrast. I can't read skyblue text on cool white background.

Although the one light theme is quite good in that regard.

(hanged your theme to light

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 months ago

It's crazy how the first time I read the comic I was fine understanding it but you hacked my brain and now I cannot read that character as a C anymore.

[-] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Glad I'm not the only one

[-] glitchdx@lemmy.world 34 points 2 months ago

anyone else miss how you used to be able to simply set all the colors and fonts for things yourself? And it was easy. It wasn't just light theme or dark theme and those are your only two options, but really whatever you want.

windows xp truly was peak windows.

(everyone should switch to linux, btw)

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yes!

It think it's actually why I'm a Linux user, now.

(I like to claim it's because I'm very good at software and I understand sustainability principles.)

But...also...Windows took away my pretty desktop.

My carefully tuned, color coordinated, work of art, desktop environment just went away during a Windows upgrade.

And my journey to find a better OS began.

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 months ago

I wish, light mode worked better in terminals. Every so often, it'll throw some yellow text at me, and it's just like, cool, I literally cannot read that.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

I wish light/dark mode switching would work in editors/IDEs at all. Kate/Kwrite apparently has that but it doesn't work with Kvantum or i don't understand the configuration enough. They should just have a "alternative editor theme" and switch to it on signal and be done. Light editor theme on dark desktop switch after 20 o clock burns my eyes.

[-] 3H3x36tBElshOa@feddit.nl 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It does work, it's just complicated to setup.

In that picture, I'm using KDE applications that are flatpaks for Cosmic Desktop on PopOS with a Kvantum theme. I made a longer post here when I was searching for instructions for how to complete this recently.

After my experience, I don't really know what the best solution is for setting it up. I guess it would be nice if the major platform applications for like KDE were supported for dark mode by default on the DE. I don't know, it really bothered me though.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Thanks! I take a look.

[-] tun@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

IMHO it depends on the theme you use.

try well maintained themes and you will not have that kind of problem. Like gruvbox light.

https://github.com/mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes/

has lot of color themes. If your terminal of choice can use ANSI colors you can use tinted-shell.

[-] narc0tic_bird@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago

Catppuccin Latte works well too!

[-] Kojichan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Was gonna suggest this theme. I love it in my light daily driver.

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago

Hmm, good idea.

I've been using the "Black on White" theme in Konsole, because that's the only real light theme it has, apart from Solarized.
Well, and apparently for some reason it uses brighter colors for what should be intense colors. Just setting the yellow to a normal yellow already improves it quite a bit.

I guess, my point still kind of stands, like why is there no better light theme included out of the box, but yeah, I should probably look into theming a bit more...

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago
[-] ulterno@lemmy.kde.social 4 points 2 months ago

oooo but you set the selected text setting to exchange FG/BG colour and noww you have white on yellow ooooo

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yep, that is precisely what my terminal does out of the box...

OK. My theme has randomly changed to light at least a couple times in the last 2-3 years. Should I be worried that this fox does indeed exist?

[-] milis@programming.dev 8 points 2 months ago

(I am using an advanced speech-to-text Lemmy client to post this, because, I don't know, some creature just tampered with my setting and I am blind now)

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

SUMBUDDY A TOUCHA MAH SPAGHETT!

[-] cuerdo@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

DID YOU ACTIVATE MY GOOGLE ASSISTANT???

[-] Draegur@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

I've never wanted to kill a fox before but at least I'll have a nice orange hat with a tail now.

[-] spookex@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

I'll just turn it into my web browser

[-] andnekon@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

I killed the fox many times before when it hang my system

[-] superkret@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago

Dark mode users just don't know how to adjust their screen brightness properly.

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 17 points 2 months ago

Imma keep it real with you. I ain't fiddling with my monitors buttons to change the brightness three times a day.

[-] TheHarpyEagle@pawb.social 10 points 2 months ago

I have all my monitors at maybe 10-20% brightness and still use dark mode for everything. It's the way of the cave dweller.

[-] TGS@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

I have my monitor on 30% brightness with dark mode always enabled.

[-] psud@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I miss CRT monitors in text mode with the field in "idle CRT screen" black and the text in cyan

Dark mode tries, but always goes for maximum contrast

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Ironically deleted your Firefox and installed Chrome

[-] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago

It's the perfect crime, I'll be unable to post about it on Lemmy.
