Lol seriously though, I’ve had so many people look at my phone and are like “JESUS YOU USE LIGHT MODE”
Like it fucking matters what I use lol
I can't handle dark mode on most screens especially in daytime. It strains my eyes trying to read light text in dark background, even more so when there's ambient light. I prefer a solarised light mode for IDEs, with anything else I make do. I've spent hours trying to find a usable dark theme for VS Code, and I've always ended up going back to light.
There's a comp sci student I try to help but his entire ide is in light mode. He uses a macbook with full brightness on and it physically hurts my eyes. I use a Thinkpad with half brightness, night mode on, and dark mode everything.
Maybe his eyes are bad. I have astigmatism and especially the combination light text on dark background at low brightness is hard to read for me, because the letters "bleed out" (think like streetlights through a foggy window).
Interesting, I have minor astigmatism and have the opposite problem, a light background blurs the text for me while a dark background and white text is nice and crisp for me.
Maybe astigmatism can have different orientations, it's a wrongly shaped lense, after all. And there are many false shapes for that.
