I’ve never wanted to kill a fox before but at least I’ll have a nice orange hat with a tail now.

I’ll just turn it into my web browser

Controversial opinion: if your monitor is set to the proper brightness for the room’s ambient light, light or dark theme becomes a matter of preference. If you’re in a completely dark room with your brightness set to 100%, then of course a light theme won’t work.

Ok now sell me a monitor that tracks the light level like my phone and adjusts its brightness accordingly.

There are actually some models already with a built in ambient light sensor. I don’t know how much of a convenience it would be, whether it would be distracting if small changes in ambient light make the brightness go up and down all the time. I personally prefer changing it manually - I have a macro pad with knobs which are mapped to do that.

DID YOU ACTIVATE MY GOOGLE ASSISTANT???

I wish, light mode worked better in terminals. Every so often, it’ll throw some yellow text at me, and it’s just like, cool, I literally cannot read that.

IMHO it depends on the theme you use.

try well maintained themes and you will not have that kind of problem. Like gruvbox light.

github.com/mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes/

has lot of color themes. If your terminal of choice can use ANSI colors you can use tinted-shell.

Catppuccin Latte works well too!

Ephera ,

Hmm, good idea.

I’ve been using the “Black on White” theme in Konsole, because that’s the only real light theme it has, apart from Solarized.
Well, and apparently for some reason it uses brighter colors for what should be intense colors. Just setting the yellow to a normal yellow already improves it quite a bit.

I guess, my point still kind of stands, like why is there no better light theme included out of the box, but yeah, I should probably look into theming a bit more…

I wish light/dark mode switching would work in editors/IDEs at all. Kate/Kwrite apparently has that but it doesn’t work with Kvantum or i don’t understand the configuration enough. They should just have a “alternative editor theme” and switch to it on signal and be done. Light editor theme on dark desktop switch after 20 o clock burns my eyes.

It does work, it’s just complicated to setup.

In that picture, I’m using KDE applications that are flatpaks for Cosmic Desktop on PopOS with a Kvantum theme. I made a longer post here when I was searching for instructions for how to complete this recently.

After my experience, I don’t really know what the best solution is for setting it up. I guess it would be nice if the major platform applications for like KDE were supported for dark mode by default on the DE. I don’t know, it really bothered me though.

MonkderVierte ,

Thanks! I take a look.

Aggravationstation ,

It’s the perfect crime, I’ll be unable to post about it on Lemmy.

Friends don’t let friends use a dark mode.

Jesus_666 ,

Depends. On Linux or older macOS where light mode typically means a comfortable light gray? Light mode is the way to go. On Windows where light mode means an eye-searing onslaught of ? Dark mode is the only sensible choice.

Real friends let’s their friends do what they want and don’t gatekeep themes.

Unlike most houses, in mine the Fox won’t change the default browser.

The Fox is the default browser.
