LCD screens, dominant in laptops and tablets, tend to get turned way up.
Was it ever about power?
At first, yes. But as i grew older, dark mode is needed because it helps with the eyes.
everything possible on my phone is dark mode. i am prone to migraines tho.
Yes yes ok… I know.
On the phone. Where power saving is important. Where oleds are commonplace now. Where individual pixels turn off when fully black. I think a pixel that is off will use less power than one that is on, no?
But beyond all that, isnt it just a preference? Some people like white mode, others like dark. We dont all have the same eyes and brains.
I personally dont like light mode one bit and go the extra mile to get dark mode on my devices, but i dont care if someone else uses light mode. Cut it out, let people do what they like.
I have Dark mode at lowest brightness on my phone at night. Soon as I go to anything that loads a stupid white background it feels like flash bang.
I’ve never understood the histrionics over ‘dark mode’
