I used this in the 90's:
`<body bgcolor="#000000">`
You needed it to really appreciate the sparks from animated fire gifs.
- dulvui 3y agoYes you are right you can get dark mode by setting the background to black. But with this media query you get an automated switch between light and dark mode, depending on you browser settings.
- EugeneOZ 3y agoDark mode is much more than just bg color. Font, shadows, borders, selection, navbar, placeholders...
- tempodox 3y ago… which creates the kind of “dark mode” that ends up being unbearable. Dark mode does not mean pitch-black background, nor does it mean squeaky-white text color.

- hypertele-Xii 3y agoIf white on black is unbearable, your screen contrast is miscalibrated. Lower it until comfortable.
- FireInsight 3y agoIf your screen shows pitch black and white both as a nice gray, your screen contrast is miscalibrated and you shouldn't be doing any work involving colors on it.
