One thing that I really miss on my Windows machine that I took for granted on my MacBook- system-wide dark theme. The Windows 11 dark theme is terrible. 90% of ui windows are still pure white (and blinding late at night). Browsers don’t seem to pick up on it, so websites don’t either.
Is there any reliable way to get a real dark mode on Windows 11?
On my MacBook, one hotkey changes every app, native window, and (modern) website (with system dark theme support) to dark mode. I only wish Darkreader would add a system theme event listener so I wouldn’t have to turn it on manually.
- sundvor 4y agoGood question. As a workaround you can always enable the yellowifying Night Light mode and crank it up. It doesn't do what I know you want (I'm not on Mac however i.e. Samsung's Edge has that amazing "make the sites NOT white" Dark Mode feature, which I love and imagine to be similar), yet it will stop the retina burning at least. (More applicable on desktops where software control of monitor brightness isn't really a thing that I've seen).
