Same and I don't understand the obsession with dark stuff. If you have a dark background, you need to work in the dark in order to see the small whitish pixels of text. If you have a light theme, you just need to turn on the light, which is pretty much most of the daytime when you're supposed to work.

Dark modes fucks with my eyes, whereas light mode forces me to use natural light or properly adjust my environment. Also I have a wide range of light colors to work with as the background. Dark mode is stuck to dark background on light text (grey or white, that's all).

Anyway, I'm prepared to die for having such a strange opinion.

Naw, I’m with you. When I work for even a short time with dark mode, I see “ghost” images when I look away, like text has been imprinted on my eyes. I’m sure dark mode works for some people, but it sure doesn’t for me.

There is one, UND EXACTLY ONE reason for darkmode. If you have an OLED, it does increase marginally battery life

Should also extend screen lifetime
