It's common knowledge that dark-mode hurts your eyes less So yeah, these people who reported are people who think their opinions & google-searches are superior to common knowledge

There are other vision conditions where people cannot see letters in dark mode that well. Apps and websites should just follow whatever the OS setting is, no matter the motivation of the user. Even if it's just a matter of taste and not some form of eye sight condition, it's just as valid.

Agreed, but all apps (especially social media ones) need a dark-mode

Cuz you said so, why don't you stare into a bright light & find out

Hold on, are you confusing something being hurting (as in, causing pain and/or pathological damage) with something being exhausting (as in, strains your eyes) with something being annoying?

Because if the three words are used interchangeably in your vocabulary that'd explain a lot of your seemingly random posts in the comments here. They're not the same (at all) to most people and especially not on a medical level (like that article you yourself provided, there is no medical evidence for non-extreme light sources making a difference in eye health).
