I use dark mode everything, white mode is exhausting on the eyes even with blue light filter glasses

white mode is exhausting on the eyes

Modern monitors can output 1000 nits, which is super bright - same with cars. When I was young I sometimes saw yellowish headlights, which weren't bright enough, but now we have LED and Xenon lamps that burn the cornea from your eyes.

Or maybe we're (also) getting older.

I've always been a dark mode user where possible. White screens are just exhausting to look at. I'm 23 so I'd hope age hasn't affected me that much yet xD

Personally I see dark mode as an accessibility option and I specifically avoid services that do not have dark mode.

Sadly, work still uses stuff that doesn't have dark mode so after a work day my eyes are so tired.

Calling a white webpage a flashbang is a little silly. There’s preference then exaggeration
