      What is the deal with the everyone using dark themes these days? I have noticed a significant switch. Personally, I like light themes better and cannot stand looking at dark themes. I realize everyone has their preferences, and I assumed most people did dark themes because they are better for your eyes. Research shows that light themes are actually better for most people.

            Dark themes burn my eyes unmercifully. It's like being tortured, then I see text-like images burned onto my corneas for an hour or more. Y'all can keep your dark themes, thanks.

              Nope, I just preferred dark themes.

                I was just asking because I read somewhere that people with astigmatism generally prefer dark themes.

                    1. You clearly aren't edgy enough.
                    2. Dark theme is easier on your eyes.

                      I also like warm colors too. I also like my TV and monitor set to warm color settings too.

                        Dark themes are easier on my eyes. Bright, mostly white anything gives me headaches eventually.

                          I do like dark themes because they are easier on my eyes. Yes, I do have an astigmatism in both eyes.

                              For me it completely depends on what it is.

                              The ML site (Well, most websites anyways), no way, can't stand the dark themes.

                              VSCode, dark theme is great.

                              Fedora theme, dark is also great.

                                  I tried the ML dark theme, but it isn't tied together well enough.

                                  If I could spend the time getting it to fit together correctly, I'd use it.

                                  But I haven't tried it in the last month or two. Has it changed?

                                        I'm using superhero here. The only thing I don't like about it is the Chats text is nearly impossible to read. As I don't bother with private chat much, idk.

                                          Slate? That one is just aweful.

                                          Darkly? That one doesn't fit well either.
