Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

pivot to ai now has working dark mode! all praise to the illustrious @fasterandworse@awful.systems
i still hate dark mode, but others fucking love it so
Awful.systems defaults to dark mode.
like a good developer, I made my personal preference the default (and I think when we started there were major issues with switching themes?)
booooo should be my personal preference (light)
brb banning David from the awful.systems plugin repo, modifying the login page so everyone has to swear they don’t know him, and launching a lawsuit for (throws a dart at a dartboard) uhh shoplifting, he shoplifted my website
YOU ~wouldn’t~
shoplift a ~WEBSITE~
imma fuckin do it again
Common mistake, but David is from the UK. He was actually just looking online for ways to improve wheelchair accessibility in a multistory house. On a lift-shopping website.
Isnt he a goth? Dont think he needs more lifts.
Wouldn't a goth prefer heavy mode?
and now that damn jingle is playing in my head at early o’ clock
awful.systems: where the abyss delivers, always
The only reason I use dark mode is because my phone is OLED so it uses less power. Otherwise I go for light.
This is what the BDFL model is all about.
Thank for letting me know there are other people indifferent to dark mode. Sometimes I feel I am the only one.
i have already had whiny shits demand that I (a) set dark mode default (b) remove the switch
default is currently set to whatever your browser thinks is the default and you can switch it otherwise
God forbid you go out of your way to do something nice without some most entitled asshole in the world giving you shit for it.
this is the best default imo
the only times I dislike it are when the site's dark mode implementation is trash. I occasionally get to notice these, because their implementation is such way that dark reader activates (time trigger), I suddenly get flashblind on some site because dark reader flips their thing to eye-stabbing light colours
it's a little magical and not entirely reliable so i'm not a fan, but the switch is there
