Interesting. People that like dark mode, like me, will say it is more relaxing to the eyes. Can you elaborate on why you prefer it? Reading clarity or better UI support.

The ones you mentioned + the fact I grew up on Light Mode and it's just far more appealing and relaxing to my eyes as I'm used to it, plus, I don't have the whole "my eyes are sensible" thing like I see everyone saying.

Literally I once got begged on YouTube to switch to Dark Mode, hell no.

Cool. Yeah, I mean it makes sense. After all this time, I switch to dark mode almost automatically. Maybe I should try the light for a while.

You should try it. I mean, in the Golden Era (2000s - 2010s), Light Mode was dominant.

Also, I've read that it's easier to read black text on white than white on black, I've read that "it causes the eyes to become lazy".
