I am not trying to convince the author of this post, but I'd like to speak to other web developers here: yes, please offer a dark mode! When I want to do some light reading in bed at night (I do have a blue light filter on for that), I will often abandon even trying to read pages with white backgrounds because it is quite uncomfortable. I do not care if scientifically I read three words less per minute, this is about perception. A dark mode option on a site shows me the developer cares to cover my use case and makes me more likely to go back. If you need to do a light theme only, then just the HN reddish-tint on the background helps me a lot.
