Dark mode is really annoying
Dark mode is really annoying
Dark mode hurts my eyes and reliably gives me a headache. I can’t understand why anyone prefers to read white text on a dark field.
You're viewing part of a thread.
I stated a point of opinion, rooted in factual evidence, and it hurt your butt.
Look at that, a little bit of Reddit, right here on lemmy!
Go to your local shaman to help your wound next time, your argument is invalid
Go ahead and disprove the findings in each of these links. Bulletpoints would be preferable:

Ah yes real scientific journals
You didn’t bother reading any of the links did you? Or you’d have seen where the information comes from.
Done here. Sorry it bothers you so much, but making you feel better about it is t my responsibility.
So blink more and you will be fine lmao one of the articles even says there is very little to no scientific work done in blue light emissions and I'd bet there is about the same amount done for dark mode too
I can't disprove any findings that the article never claims. I just read through all three of those. That was the biggest waste of time I did today.
Nothing in those articles stated any evidence or facts(article 2 doesn't even talk about dark mode past the first paragraph btw, it transitions into blue light and calling it dark mode). Nothing was peer-reviewed. None of them even took a side.
That being said, I decided to do some research of my own on the college portal, it doesn't seem like there is much actual research on the matter period. The closest thing I could find is a study indicating that usage of dark mode can cause you to be more honest, which i have saved to read later because that sounds interesting.
What I do know is, I could barely read article 1 and 3 due to the text on the screen. I actually have a headache from the strain of the black text on white background. I really don't understand how people can do that. Like sure white text on black screen can be a pain at times as well but, at least it doesn't give me a headache. It's not like dark mode implementations are white on black, most of them are a white on grey or a grey on black to allow for a lesser adjustment, it's OLED themes that do pitch black with white text. I can do dark theme any day, my eyes hurt with OLED themes
Cool anecdotal story. That certainly disproves everything I have said so far. That must mean that there’s no possible way OTHER people can prefer it the other way.
