Dark mode matters, but so does light mode. I think the option should always be there for your users, since it seems like the population is split pretty evenly in their preference for one over the other. Evangelizing for only one mode is missing the point in my opinion.
On a side note (and not to come off as spammy), but I built a front-end framework specifically to make it easy for web devs to include dark mode (along with light mode) in the tools and dashboards they build: https://www.gethalfmoon.com/ https://www.gethalfmoon.com/
- bitwize 6y agoLight mode is, objectively, better for your eyes and helps you to read text more clearly.
- darkhorse13 6y agoPersonally I agree, especially when reading long documents, but that is obviously subjective. However, I swear I have met people who always turn on dark modes, regardless of the type of content they are consuming.
- mindslight 6y agoDark mode keeps me relaxed and focused rather than making me want to get up and do physical tasks. As OP said, both matter. Each excels in different qualities. You choose what works for you, I'll choose what works for me.
