I use dark reader. It allows you to get dark theme on sites that normally don't have it. Its now the first plugin I install when setting up a web browser.

yes 1000%, I've also been shifting my desktop (running plasma) to be a sort of glowwave theme that has very high contrast yet isn't harsh on my eyes. It's very nice!

I've now come out the otherside. In this latest push to get dark-mode offerings everywhere I think too many color choices have become hard on my eyes. I realized it's been giving me eye strain headaches.

I've got my OS set to dark mode but there are several apps and sites that I've switched back over to light-mode. And as I've been weeding out bad dark-modes I've found that I've been able to turn my screen brightness down a bit which further helps with eye strain.

Yeah, I've been using dark mode for everything for at least 2 years. I also use night shift to adjust the screen to a warmer color temp. I've dealt with chronic migraines for years, and light was a big trigger.

Dark mode all day and redshift set based on the sunrise and sunset on both desktop and phone. I won't go back.

Also I'm gonna do another suggestion for Dark Reader browser extension. It's great!

I use dark mode late at night, especially using amoled screens under artificial lights or with all the lights off in bed. I don't like using it when I'm outside, it seems off somehow.

Dark mode all the time and from 10pm on my phone switches to grayscale to help me put it away.

I didn't understand it for a long time, but I'm a vampire now :-/

Dark modes and blue light filters. My parents don't understand how I can stand to look at shit with those settings but idk how they can't. I also have way more screentime than them though because I work in IT. I get eye strain so fuckin easy.

I use everything on light mode all the time. Mostly to annoy my fellow developers.

I insist on not using it. Instead of inverting colors, just turn down your brightness. Light text on dark background actually causes more eye strain.

I tried dark mode, including all the extensions and OS settings, but there are way too many times Windows thinks that stabbing me in the eyes with a brilliant full white screen is just the thing to do. The problem with dark mode is that to make the colours come out the brightness has to be cranked up.

Gave up on dark mode after too many of those stabs and just run in light mode now with the brightness turned down.

I've been needing new glasses for a while, the struggle is real..
(I just realised I forgot to say the actually relevant part - reading dark text on bright background is so much harder when you can't see well 😂)

Full dark baby. I was at Nintendo Live last weekend and they had massive difficulties scanning a qr code with dark mode; a shame really.

Dark mode with mlauncher on my home screen to remove bright annoying icons for apps, and just text based descriptions for apps. Also my wallpapers are only ever neutral colours. E.g. dark blues, monotones, etc.

I also use a monochrome colour filter, at night, or when overwhelmed. Also, I use blue light filter at night.

I honestly prefer light mode because that's what I grew up on. Back then it was light mode or bust.
