> I find that turning my phone/laptop/monitor brightness down as needed solves that problem. Turning down brightness this much makes the content less readable, especially when it's low-contrast. > There is a reason Google Maps switches between light and dark mode based on ambient light sensor. I challenge anyone to use maps in dark mode on a sunny day; there is no device bright enough to make dark mode content visible outside I'm pretty sure I always use Google Maps in dark mode. > It would also be absurd to burn so much energy trying to make thin colored lines and text be as bright as the opposite - dark lines on light background. On AMOLED screens, dark mode saves energy. > Probably because viewing the highest contrast dark mode color schemes is more painful than switching to light mode and dimming the monitor. Not for me.
