Do you need deep black/dark mode if the display isn’t projecting the light into your eyes? I feel like I could be fine going back to light mode on eInk or a projector. I can’t say that when I’m using my kindle that I miss there not being a dark mode because the reason I’m using dark mode on the other devices in the first place is no longer an issue with the kindle.
- xwdv 4y agoIt’s hard for me to take work seriously on a lighter screen. Black just looks way more expensive.
- nottorp 4y agoI started with text mode IDEs/editors 3 million years ago. On CRTs. Black background. I still think that's optimal. Probably just too used to it. I also miss my pet dinosaur. Besides, isn't it sad that there are only two display technologies that have black black nowadays? One is dead (CRTs) and one still has growing pains (OLED). There should be more.
- rcarr 4y agoI don’t know, I don’t really remember being blown away by CRT monitors back in the day or miss them in any way and I’ve not had an OLED device yet. I have dark mode on everything but can’t say I feel upset about what the blacks look like. Maybe ignorance is bliss.
