    the camera did a good job at auto metering for the wine bottles 😂, or was left on manual with no TTL

    On all my devices I automatically switch light / dark mode / blue light shifts based on sunrise / sunset. Granted my computer desk is against a window, but I find that my electronic screens generally aligning with outdoor brightness works pretty well for me

    I remember reading that light mode is better for extended reading, so that’s what I lean toward. My personal experience is that reading white text on black background can be a little more straining, but it wouldn’t surprize me if others feel differently.

      I believe, it mainly has to do with dark-theme screens quickly becoming illegible when there’s outside light sources. It just isn’t bright enough to overpower the glare from the sun and such.

    I have a theme on Linux that has a sepia/beige tone, and I don’t need a dark mode.

    White backgrounds in applications and websites suck, especially with modern monitors. Conversely, some IPS monitors have so much lightbleed compared to VA ones, that you also need to readjust the color theme for both monitors.

      That is genuinely one of the reasons why I use light theme. Like, have you see how bright the fucking sun is? My light-themed screen is still a joke compared to looking outside the window. So, I’m trying to help along my circadian rhythm by at least somewhat simulating the sun on my screen.

    It’s useful when I need to walk around a dark room and don’t want to turn my flashlight on.
