Dark on light is ood for reflected light aka paper, in light mode dark letters occupy few perecent so you are starring at light source directly. In my personal case i have a some lens deffects and astigmatism and to much light worsens my vision and irritates me. I'm very very old (;)) so to adolescence i have only black&withe tv in my home. I spend fair amount of time in white mode (ZX Spectrum, ZX-81, PC(Delphi, Notepad etc.)), dark mode ( amber, green, monochrome PC, terminals), strange mode (withe on bluish C-64, white/yellow on blue Turbo Pascal) on TVs, CRTs and LCDs... And as blind programer says "I can't see the difference" ;) Seriously i shoud check now with current fonts this IMHO has more impact on eye strain than dark or light.
@TheSimoc Жыл бұрын
Generaly agree, but about fonts, I think it is more about brain strain than eye strain (clarity of font affecting how much brain processing is consumed on comprehension). Even more than fonts, matters the UI design, which has as a general trend gone horrible since the era of Windows 7 and all its contemporary crap, and has only gotten worse to this year. Clutter, unintuitivity and unclarity of UI elements, loss of buttonizations, categorical styling, colorfulness, and other things improving the intuitional interpretation of elements, all subconsciously increase stress levels due to brain having to work harder on comprehension. I can clearly feel the difference when using "modern" software vs. "obsolete" software with more profesionally designed UIs.

Hi, former coder with dyslexia and OCD is here, I asked my friend whos currently in a psychology college about that and based on my own experience I can say that: Focusing is very hard for me, especially when I read, I can't focus on a light surface, it feels like the letters are getting mixed together, words doesn't make sense, I can't see the differences between one line and another, all letters look the same, and like, its irritating which also adds additional panic for me, I can't read even simple pages like that. Dark mode on the other hand is something I use all the time (including coding). When I'm researching something, if the web-page is white, I'm just enabling Opera's dark mode feature which allows me to read. So, if you have this mix of disorders (cuz I don't think it works with stuff like ADHD or something??? I guess it's only if you have anxiety issues or shit?), this study is false for you.

One more thing is that I prefer the AOD (Always on Display) on the phones and which are on Dark Mode, so to match that with the whole phone I turn on the dark mode on phone and then on copy the same on the phone to make that seem like it is all connected. I don't know if it's only me or other people too. But I don't have the AOD on for now so, I have light mode everywhere and it must be said that I love it more than the dark mode.

I found it writing code better in dark, but reading code better in light. And one more thing. Those, who prefer more higlighting colors, better use dark theme, because, different colors at once easier to distinguish on dark background. If you don't care about many different colors (just highlight strings, functions and keywords, like i do), then light theme is perfect. It's very hard to distinguish dark blue from light blue on light (also, you just can't read ligh blue on white background), but very easy (check vscode default theme) on dark theme.
