Dark mode turns laptops into mirrors, especially if they are glossy. Any office that has overhead tube lights is a poor match for dark mode apps. I even go with light terminal schemes in this case, and I have a strong preference towards dark console apps. It's even worse with laptops where screens are angled slightly towards the ceiling. Same goes with IDEs - I use dark in the evening, when there's low light, and light schemes in offices - just to reduce contrast between screen and rest of world, and to eliminate mirror effects on the display. Mobile apps however, light mode all the way! I just turn the brightness down. Glowing text is painful on small screens.
