Musk says Twitter will soon only offer dark mode: It’s ‘better in every way’
- BillyTheMage 3y agoNever thought I'd agree with a Musk decision, but yeah dark is superior to light. It's literally the difference between shining a flashlight in your eyes and not shining a flashlight in your eyes. People who shine flashlights in their eyes are self-destructive idiots.
- CharlesW 3y agoTip: If light mode hurts your eyes, your monitor is too bright for your environment. My LG is set to 50%, for example.
- dathinab 3y agoexcept outdoors when it's sunny .... where dark mode tends to be unusable as long as you don't have a very bright screen (which many phones have today, laptops often less so)
- kleer001 3y agoor to people with astigmatisms where it creates burning lines after images and headaches
- oatmeal1 3y agoIt's crazy how many features Twitter is pumping out with so many fewer people.
- tamimio 3y agoI don’t see a verge article why HN is only light theme :) But this is what will happen: - Changes will be implemented, news will talk about it for a week or so. - Musk make light theme a “feature” with the paid accounts. - HackerNews will discuss the technicalities and their stories how this is a bad/good idea. - Also on HN, Show HN: I made an addon to bring back twitter (I mean X) light theme (500 points, 600 comments, over 9000 github stars and sponsors) - Musk looks for the next controversial thing because he likes attention and the media is baited by that.
