#lightmode

Just optimizing my dark and light theme on my blog. I recently discovered there are ideal color contrasts that we should be using and be aware of to improve accessibility.

I used these free checkers to see if the color combos works.

And some info about #WCAG

Changed my code editor to light mode! :blobcatdevil:

#codeEditor #helix #zellij #terminal #LightMode #rust

Gnome Terminal showing a lot of code. The background of the terminal is very bright. There are two columns. The first two contain Rust code. The third is split horizontally. The top pane contains lint results, and the bottom runs my code on every change.

It's getting more and more disorienting to me when a website doesn't have light and dark modes, and automatic switching between them based on system settings.

In particular, when I'm in dark mode, Reddit and Stack Overflow stick out like sore thumbs against everything else on my screen.

(Can't think of a reverse case ATM, except for the Tidal app and website. But also, it's not as glaring to have something dark amid bright stuff.)

I recently discovered that my favorite dark theme is actually more harmful to my eyes than the classic black text on a white background. Better readability = less strain on the eyes = less fatigue = better overall! 😊 Today, I spent the whole day switching all my devices to light mode and installing more readable fonts. Feeling great about this change!

In any case, I can always return to the dark side if I want! 😉

Breaking news: In the year 2025, trade keyboards for pens and notebooks—because who needs a computer when you can scribble your code on paper, right? 🖊️🗒️ Meanwhile, the rest of us are still trying to figure out how to switch from dark to light mode. 😅💡

@mms committed #lightmode user here. I've tried several light background colors but I always get tired of anything with any tint at all. Current (not ideal) solution is to turn the screen brightness down, since anyway I also get hit with FFFFFF backgrounds in the browser and other programs.

Dont @ me - but I have changed back to #lightmode on my mac. This feels strange.

Question for you peeps:

I've made a site and it's totally in dark mode. How I like it 😊

But some people mentioned that I should offer a light mode toggle because "some people are not used to dark mode and won't like it".

Do you think that's valid?

(Someone else said that there's also potentially an accessibility issue with dark mode - is that true?)

I don't know what it is, but in the past few years I've gone the reverse of everything dark mode to everything light mode or full color mode.

I finally did it for #discord and it looks so strange to me. It looks almost not modern if that makes sense.
What do you prefer Dark Mode or Light Mode?

Or maybe single-window mode, even if it feels super crammed and I cannot individually move images around.

Would you #bitwig users appreciate an alternative light theme for the #daw? Ideally one that follows the system setting? I would really like to be able to use Bitwig Studio in bright sunlight and the dark theme is not ideal for such conditions.
