Dark mode = zoomer mode
ive never not used dark mode... old people
wasn't the whole point of dark mode (at least on early oled/amoled phones) the battery savings from the pixels not turning on when true blacks were displayed? I use whatever the system defaults to, so I've got a hodgepodge of dark & light modes across my monitors
i code with light mode, way more comfortable.
>>103246086The guy that made the first terminal was a zoomer? Did he zoom into your great grandma bathing naked or something?

>>103246050>>natural to the eyesit's a monitor, by no means is it remotely natural
>>103246050dark mode was the originalterminals used light for text and absence of light for background.light mode is just one more thing where the only reason it exists is to show off that it can be done rather than doing something because it should be done.black on white is a necessity in printing tells you everything you need to know.
Dark mode is a simulacrum of the highest order.Back when screens were naturally dark, there was no need for distinction. A blank white page was essentially just a gray.
Light mode during the day, dark mode at night.I had to work with zoomers once and they self-segregated into a room, closed the curtains and turned off the lights to make their dark mode more usable.I don't believe they did any work there.

The reason boomers prefer light mode and zoomers prefer dark mode is that zoomers have never read a single book
I am white, I am the master, my slave is not my equal, he is black.
>>103248778The reason I prefer dark mode is because unlike books, my screen emits light, sorry that I had to explain this to your demented ass, boomer.
black mode is better for eyesits not rocket science to figure out - less background (insignificant) light comes to an eye - easier to handle/distinguish objects (letters, controls)also its not a "zoomer invention", all terminals are black by default because they come from traditional terminals text-mode terminals that are in the black mode.black color is harder to display than white. actually there is no such thing as black color, see - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRGB there is no black color. old CRT displays and cheap displays cant show black correctly, it still radiates some grayish light
>>103248778books dont emit light stupid
>>103248737Light mode is preferable. With dark mode the background, which occupies the majority of the screen space, is dark, which causes your pupils to dilate to take in more light. More dilated pupils means more flaring from light sources and a generally less sharp vision, meaning the white text will have some bloom, making it look blurry and causing you to strain your eyes to read it. That effect is less noticeable for people with perfect eyesight (but still present), but it can be made worse by astigmatism, which will make the flaring worse.

>>103248829>less background (insignificant) light comes to an eye - easier to handle/distinguish objects (letters, controls)It's actually the opposite, see >>103248947

>>103246050i prefer the background to be yellow and the font white.
>>103248990Real freaky stuff. You're pretty FUCKED UP aren't you? Yeah you are...
>>103248810>>103248851There's no physical disctinction between emitted and reflected light that's relevant in this context. If you measure the light coming from a book page in an illuminated room, or an LCD screen, they may well emit similar energy.You probably just turn up brightness too high and then complain.
>>103249003>if you measuredimmest option in the middle of night will emit more light than book will reflect of brightest day, kill yourself
I really don't understand how we've gotten to the point as a society where people bicker over whether light mode or dark mode is better. Just ten years ago it was considered a standard feature in a lot of user interfaces to be able to install your own themes and color schemes, and you were encouraged to use whichever ones you liked best.No one gives a fuck whether you prefer your software to be dark or light, any more than they care what color dick you like to have shoved up your ass. Just use whatever gets you off and do your job properly.

pls vote, we'll do the research ourselves.. also, pls be honesthttps://strawpoll.com/1MnwkRp11n7
>>103246050Why yes i am also a 4chan contrarian
>>103246283>>103248829>OG terminalsWhat do you think is more realistic? Illuminating all the parts of a crt screen that doesn't contain text or just illuminating text on it? Keep in mind you have a shitty display technology and very limited computational power.Dark mode has always sucked and the only reason original terminals were black was because there was no way to make them actually good.
>>103250582OG terminals were actually good.
>>103249640but what are gonn do all day if not argue pointless crap? that would mean the death of the site
>>103246050>bring up a subjective preference thing>start pointless debate>masturbate
>>103246050I have neurological issues that makes light mode essentially impossible for me to use. I wish I could though because yea I'm not a fan of dark mode being worse for my sight especially since I already have eye problems.
Light mode for text.Dark mode for everything else.
Light/dark scheduled with sunrise sunset is the patrician way
