I don't trust dark theme users - bugs hide in the dark 🐛
But the light attract the bugs in the first place 🙂
Haha, that was too good!
Damnnnnnnn :DD
Good one 😂
THIS WEBSITE USES DARK THEME , omg talk about hypocritical.
As a user who switches back and forth between the modes for accessibility concerns, the number of tools that don't accommodate both appearance is far too high. And some don't do a great job either way – I'm looking at you, Redux DevTools, with your default color scheme that provides worse contrast ratios than a 1997 LCD laptop display.
One of the quirks that does catch me is leaving a large number of breakpoints in your browser. It's something small, but it slows down troubleshooting if you leave them active – both because you might end up clicking through them and because code runs slower when it has breakpoints active – and it clutters the breakpoint list and obscures what is actually being tested even when they are disabled. It's minor, but it's something I notice.
This bugs me - the fact there's no way to clear all breakpoints in Chrome. You can turn breakpoints on and off individually or globally, but you can't hit a button to clear them all and start over.
There isn't a button, but you can right-click one of the breakpoints in the list and choose to Disable all, Remove other, or Remove all breakpoints. I believe this only works for line-of-code breakpoints, not the other types.
This isn't the case in my Chrome:
Sorry, I should have been more clear. It's in the sidebar, not directly in the Source.
I just use bootstrap 5.3 , css and js , and use a bg-dark theme for each element.
Then you could make a button out of that selector if you choose too.

I would say that there's always time for light mode users to come to the light side -- the light side being dark mode, of course.

Hell no, same way I can't trust people who watch dubbed anime. Just weird behaviour.
Lol, comment of the day right here!
Always feels like I'm watching an abomination 😭. It turns the anime into basic cartoons which is so annoying. It's sub or nothing 💯
Don’t trust anyone. They’re all posers — either dark or light... Nobody should see your mode. This is the way.
facts
No.
I’m 62. I use light mode.
Deal with it.
follow earned.
You should. It makes perfect sense to use light mode since most of the websites and apps still don't have native dark mode support and light-to-dark-mode browser extensions aren't perfect.
The change between a dark page and a light page is very jarring... from what I hear. I'm not a light mode user (or am I?)
Funny enough, we had this discussion jokingly a couple of weeks ago because all devs in our team work with dark mode and I converted everyone to the dark reader browser plugin which does a pretty good job on most websites :)
What bugs me as a behavior:
For a IDE in html , you can jsut add bootstrap CSS and JS at the top , and set a background theme to dark on the html class.
Try it and see how it works for you - getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/customiz...
Yes, I trust it, I think that a developer's personal resource does not interfere with being a good or bad developer. More by choice. I use dark mode, not for the sake of it, but I work in the morning and in the afternoon, and at night I study. Having the light mode on makes my eyes very uncomfortable.
p.s. -- Dark theme is used for people whos eyes hurt from staring at the screen for double digit hours ,
Why ?
Because they work on code instead of silly games.
--- If someone doesn't trust me because I am making a decision for my own physical well being ,
then that is certainly not a good thing for my own physical well being , isn't it?
In following ,
-- If someone posts an entire page on the options of a bootstrap 5.3 feature ,
-- That's probably a sign of a noob.
People , Don't follow noobs. I'll do my own article on it later.
Good day.
No. No. No no no NOOOOO!
Your a super lame developer and obviously racist against white people because yo obviously have no idea on how to use a simple color pallet.
Please stop posting wasteful content so people waste their lives reading it , thx.
Please stop with your lame and fake installments , it degrades the quality of the environment on this platform.

Good day sir.
You know who I wouldn't trust? A dev who wears glasses and hasn't at least tried light mode.
I have astigmatism and I can dealt with so much less eye strain since I switched to using light mode during the say, dark mode at night, and setting a high enough font size.
Honestly the 'quirk' I'm most likely to judge someone one is worrying too much about settings, customization, and 'optimizing their setup'.
Not always is a matter of choice, so your trust should not depend on light or dark modes.
I personally prefer dark modes everywhere. But the problem is, not all websites and softwares have a dark theme. I know there are browser plugins that force black themes, but on some sites it just does not look good, on some others it's really weird. And desktop software don't have plugins at all.
That said, I use a light theme. Light, not white. It's not always black or white 😉 and the reason is, using black themes and then switching to light websites just hurts me enough to have headaches, or makes me feel tired before closing my daily work. If I use a light theme, I don't have any problem working 8+ hours in front of a computer. So it's just a matter of health, not aesthetics.
Developers who use dark mode need to get outside more...during the day.
I don't trust developers who don't use a Solarized theme.
Lol

I trust them. At least they're not a vampire.
....... Seriously ?
Dude , fr , why yo gotta go there ?
I literally am a vampire who uses dark theme ....
and .... well.. Cmon man....... That's just a little offensive ok ?
you don't gotta be like that . . . .
... Well ,
--- I don't trust crappy written articles, with pointless baseless questions/
Dark reader is a good chrome plugin to dark mode everything. Light mode devs must have super eyes or something I don't get how you can stare directly into a fleshlight all night long
A silly question unless completely not serious. I use both depending on the context.
developers who can’t touch type. i wouldn’t say i don’t trust them, that’s ridiculous, but it does lower my initial impression.
Solarized theme + tabs indent here. Both are backed by science + personal experience.
The community is finally switching to tabs (prettier v3) so good light modes should be next.
As a developer who prefers light mode in many apps, I can tell you that you shouldn't trust a developer that uses light mode.
i remember i stopped visiting dev.to due to the lack of dark them,
So yeah i did subconsciously judged dev.to , my reasoning a was if they are serious they should have a dark theme ;)
OFC NOT! Only dark theme allowed. White hurt your eyes too!
