I use simple dark redux for firefox, it works really well. You need to use stylus for it, but its super easy to install

Dark mode acknowledged!!! Let's goooo, my migraine-having photosensitive self will be saved \o/
But seriously, thank you guys for all the work you put into this website. Especially on the accessibility front.

I am so glad to hear there'll be a dark mode!

@krondar I find that a bit hard to believe. Do you stare at a screen in an otherwise dark room? Because if so, of course it's causing issues.
Dark modes are actually proven to be more harmful than not for people like me, who actually have astigmatism, so I have problems perceiving it as anything that actually helps anyone, instead of just a trendy thing for people who want to use their devices in a dark room.
I can only hope that in pursuit of a 'dark mode', they don't decide to fiddle with the site default, or set it as default on mobile, where I sometimes play. Reddit having dark mode as the default if my device is in power saving mode hurts me.

No doubt dark mode will come with a toggle. If it bothers you, simply don't use it.

Again, I can only hope that this is the case. Lots of things on my mobile phone in power saver mode default to dark mode with no option to change it.
And, as I guessed as much, someone has already provided your friend with a solution to their problem without FR having to do a thing, so again, why make something if it's not needed.

It's important to remember that everyone has a unique experience of the world, and where some things are helpful to you they can be harmful to others, and vice-versa. Dark mode is incredibly good for some people - e.g. I am autistic and suffer with migraines (I [i]also[/i] have astigmatism), so I usually default to dark mode where I can as it both helps to reduce sensory overload for me and makes sites easier to use without triggering/worsening a migraine (sometimes I don't realise I'm getting one until it gets particularly bad). It's also useful if you can only use the site late at night, as it's less likely to trick your brain into thinking it's light out.
Features like this are [i]guaranteed[/i] to come with a toggle - FR won't just throw away all of their old themes just like that, that would just be silly, and to insist otherwise is just to force unnecessary drama. A site shouldn't rely on extensions to fix what is for plenty of people a genuine accessibility option, and even if it's overdue that's no reason it shouldn't be implemented. Your attitude towards this is coming off as very un-empathetic and self-focused for a feature you will be able to avoid completely.
