Sticking to light mode in everything is more optimal:
- light mode is often the default, so you don't have to work around it
- more readable: in the daytime, in text editors, for people with astigmatism
- using screen inverters like https://github.com/mlaily/NegativeScreen/ https://github.com/mlaily/NegativeScreen/ switches your whole screen to "night mode" - including the pesky details like taskbars, menu, etc, and offering you more fine control (ex: only keep the red channel)
Yes, even my terminal is in light mode (Solarized light) - at night, I just press on a key which immediately invert my screen colors and only preserve the red channels. No tweaking with a zillion apps to get them "dark".
In the day time, I press on the key again and keep going with all the applications now "light".
