I see "dark mode" as a top-3 feature in more and more software these days. I know people feel pretty strongly about it, but it always feels out of place to me - or is it really one of the top-3 things people think about when choosing whether to try something.
- NortySpock 6y agoTop three requirements when trying to find something to prototype with / test out / see if it will work? No. However, once you start using it regularly, probably a reasonable chunk of the population wishes there was a dark mode when you're wanting to check the server stats at 11pm when you're about to go to bed and don't want to shine bright light in your (spouse's) face.

- skanga 6y agoRather than dark-mode - my real Top 3 are: 1) Save metrics. I want to know what happened at 3am last night when I was asleep 2) Nobody runs only a single server, need a single UI for the whole fleet. 3) Extensibility. Allow me to add my own metrics.
- adolfojp 6y agoDark mode to me is an accessibility feature. I've got dark floaters in my eyes. They contrast against light backgrounds making it difficult to read. The fact that they float around doesn't help. To make matters worse I have high photo sensitivity. Dark mode fixes those problems so well that I can forget that the problem even exists. I use a browser extension to help with websites and I will often choose programs based on whether they've got a dark mode or not.
