To the naysayers: styling scrollbars has a very valid use-case. Two IDEs that I use most at work are Visual Studio 2012 and JetBrains PyCharm. I always switch to the dark theme on both, and try to use dark styling whenever possible. Simply because the amount of light from two 24" displays can be overwhelming. Both IDEs style the scrollbars to conform to the dark theme. You cannot do that in browser, unless you resort to emulating the scrollbar, like e.g. CodeMirror did. Light grey scrollbars on otherwise dark screens are immediately noticeable and distracting.

- scrapcode 12y agoMay I also add that Redshift is an alternative on Linux and there are multiples on iOS and Android. These apps and bright light therapy have done numbers on my shift-work disorder.
- mynegation 12y agoThank you for recommendation, for whatever reason I did not know (forgot) that f.lux works on Windows. f.lux changes color temperature, not brightness. I tried changing overall brightness level with controls, but that unavoidably reduces contrast which is just as bad.
- eru 12y agoOn Linux, you are looking for `redshift'.
