    This may have been suggested already, but it would be good if CP had a dark mode.

      CP Dark Theme[^]

      We've played around with it and no - it doesn't look good.

      As I said last year, I'm one of those weird people who gets eye strain from looking at light text on a dark background, so having the option to chose would be essential. I've seen sites which added a dark mode as an option, and then removed the light mode option because it was too much work to maintain both.

        I use dark mode everyewhere that it's an option - Visual Studio, Twitter, Facebook, Outlook etc. I find it drastically reduces the amount of eye strain.

          For you. For me, it drastically increases the amount of eye strain. Which is why I said it would have to be an option, rather than forcing it on everyone. :)

            Same here. I generally change my cmd windows to black on white if I need to use them for any length of time.
