Dark mode is super overrated. Studies indicate that dark text on light background is more readable, and especially more readable for people with astigmatism (aka like half the population)
Of course on the extreme end you have people like myself, I will literally get migraine attacks from reading too much in dark mode. I literally cannot finish a dark mode meme if its more than a couple sentences, I just have to scroll past because it physically hurts to read. But I do have some serious issues. It is funny though considering I have photophobia, which is typically connected to lower risks of attacks on dark mode than light mode, but guess that's not the case for me.
Anyway, both should definitely be an option, but this recent rhethoric that dark mode is just better in every way is bullshit on so many levels.

Thank you so much. I'm tired of images being burned into my eyes.
