I'm so conflicted! My brother just opened VS Code and tried evangelizing me on the benefits of using a light theme! Should I disown him? Secretly sabotage his development environment? This is very distressing. Suggestions? Lol

You should not give a fuck. His choice.

Let his eyes suffer and he'll realize how bad light themes are.

@Alice or he'll realize he could get the same effect by staring at the sun and just ditch light themes for going blind by looking at the sun lol

@Alice of course it is! Unless it's a cloudy or rainy day, the sun is shining bright for several hours a day, making it even more convenient for you to go blind looking at it!

@Alice It definitely is though lol

My eyes used to become dry and tire out much earlier than before I used dark themes.

I'd have a lamp on, a light theme active, with some bright LEDs slowly changing in the background. Cut on a dark theme and I can get a few more hours before it hurts to look at the computer screen lol

@Alice I did during the solar eclipse a few months back. (Looked with and without shades.)

It made my eyes tired and they hurt like shit.

(This is for you and @oudalally) I genuinely don't give a fuck about what a person uses. It was a joke in the first place but it's gone on far too long now to the point it's basically become a light vs dark war.

✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

@oudalally It's not like I stared without glasses for 15 minutes...

It was like 5 seconds just because I wanted to see what it looked like to the naked eye.

Persuade him to join the dark side by quoting star wars all week.

I prefer light themes,
I’m to blind to use them any more.
Light themes did not cause this.

Finding a dark theme that doesn’t suck cock and wants to make me rip my eyes out due to stupidity and overly contrasting colours is painful as fuck.

I like light themes in well-lit rooms and as research shows, that's actually better for your eyes unless you work in a dark environment, in this case rather use a dark theme or turn your lights on.

But people still have their opinions and that's ok (although you're all wrong hahahaha!)

Watch yourself - always remember psychopaths tend to use light themes

@fml89 I know where you live...

@C0D4 same. How’s Melbourne winter?

@fml89 strangely warmer then usual today for this time of year.

@Alice I can verify that one 😂
