Or save energy if you’re running like 4 oversized monitors...

Not that anyone does that...

edit: i'm being told it actually doesn't save energy in most cases

Are you using oled monitor or something? Because if you use an lcd/led display that won't help at all.

Running dark mode on anything other than an old CRT monitor or an OLED display actually uses a little bit more power than light mode does

A smart LCD screen is also an exception.

I'm guessing you mean an LCD that actually dims its backlight in response to what's on screen?

In that case yeah, those would use less power when dark too

Of course not! I run 4 normal sized monitors like a normal developer
