I like dark mode because I don't like KGB interrogatories with a lamp pointed at my face.

As I say with music: "Every moment has its music and every music has its moment", I like both modes, each one in its concrete situation.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I like dark mode because it matches my mood.

What is dark mode?
>64 It’s weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.

I do not like dark mode because I can't focus, I have no explanation for that. It makes me dumber.
Maybe it stimulates your circadian rhythm to a "sleeping" pattern.

I prefer light grey text rather than pure white and (very) dark gray rather than black. I am slightly photosensitive and prone to sensory overload, I found that mild lighting and mild contrast help me a lot.

I like dark mode because I get migraines and the light sensitivity is brutal.

I don't like dark mode as it's too dark, and I'm afraid of it.

I like dark mode because it matches the dark circles under my eyes. :laugh:

I use dark-mode because I'm a tight-arse and the battery lasts longer, even though I prefer the aesthetic of light-mode.

I like dark mode because it hides the fact that I haven't cleaned my screen in months.

I dislike dark mode because it reminds me of the old Amber screens.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

I like dark mode because I'm awake a lot during the wee hours, and a dark screen in a dark room is much easier on the eyes.

That's the one thing I'll say in favor of dark mode - even with the brightness reduced as much as possible (which it how I work all the time), the average monitor is still glowing bright, relatively speaking, in full darkness. I don't work all that much in the wee hours. But then, there's a reason you're called the code witch. :-)

Amber screens
I hadn't thought about those in a long, long time. I've used both green and amber screens. Between the two, I thought amber was much better. I remember one of the secretaries working at my high school hired me to help her out with some word processing (I was a fast typist, a stickler for accuracy, knew my way around WordPerfect and was proficient enough to correct her own grammatical errors), and she had one of those amber monitors. Provided I adjusted the brightness so the individual letters wouldn't "bleed", I thought it was rather pleasant to work with. And she paid quite well. :-) I don't remember exactly the amount, but she paid me per page, and she almost regretted giving me the job 'cuz I "cost her a lot". On the other hand, she got her work done in no time, and being paid by the page, it really didn't matter I how fast I was, it would've ended up costing her the same. Win-win.
