A photo looking up at a residential building at least 6 stories tall. It is night time, and the vast majority of windows are dark. The windows of one residence are slightly lit. Then, the window of another residence has a light that is extremely bright blaring out of it. The caption reads, “When I open a web page that forces a white background.”
My retinas getting scorched out into the wee hours of the morning definitely drew me to DarkReader so I could just have an easy switch to nullify that decision. When I switched from the Microsoft Spyware OS, it was a relief to be able to globally enable dark mode with a key binding in my other windows so I could spend more than 5 seconds in the Windows settings without staring into Doc Ock’s pocket sun…
I can’t imagine how people can use a computer all day and not have damage to their vision without dark readers :D
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.
Saaame. The only time I turn off the blue light filter for my computer is if I’m editing photos for color accuracy. But I turn it back on the moment I finish editing.
I tried introducing f.lux to my mom, but she hated it when the filter finally started to kick in. My dad is no better; I feel he keeps his monitor on at full brightness regardless of how dark it is in the room. It physically hurts to look at his monitor.
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.
I honestly prefer light mode because that’s what I grew up on. Back then it was light mode or bust.
