That's rather dismissive and ablest.
I need high contrast. Dark background and bright text allow me to view the content. Screen brightness plays a role here too, but it's used to enhance the contrast, not compete against it.
- CharlesW 3y ago> I need high contrast. Me too! That's an independent issue, though. Normal HN text has a contrast ratio of 19.34:1, which is great. In contrast (ha ha), greyed-out text has a contrast ratio of 3.54:1, which is terrible. So, HN should definitely fix text/background contrast ratios ASAP, whether or not they add a dark mode.
