A white screen uses like a million times more energy than a dark screen too. People burning they retinas out and paying a premium for the privilege lmao.

I use red mode OP. It's pretty rare. But instead of white or black background. You just have red as the background.

It should be illegal for any website to not have a darkmode option.
Plain and simple.

Aren't all the putative health benefits of dark mode bogus and really it just looks cooler? Nothing wrong with that, though.

The health benefit of not having to squint as I navigate to a website isn't bogus.

Eh, it's a very "it depends" type of thing. The three things that are actually bad for your eyes:
1. eyestrain from not using glasses when you need glasses
2. dryness and lack of lubrication because you don't blink enough
3. focusing at close range for a long time without breaks

Dark mode might help with 2 & 3, particularly where you have a big difference in contrast between the screen and the rest of your surroundings. A bright screen in a dark room is often bad because you will tunnel in and not look away. (Though TBQH even dark mode in a dark room will have this effect some, don't use screens in the dark.)

The other thing that can help is having the lights on so your room isn't dark. And aside from that, probably no, dark mode is not universally more readable or better for your eyes.


Though on many websites these days dark mode *is* way more readable because it has some goddamn contrast, versus the light mode that's actually grey-on-grey garbage.

Even black on grey text is better than abrasive white backgrounds. Blanket dark mode for everything.
