Is there any chance of a dark mode for the forums? Almost all of the other things I look at have a dark mode and then POW! Blinded by here, lol. Just a thought...

Did you try: chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark
 
Thanks P4 and Solaris, I'll one day work out how to use the search function, haha...

How would I use that Hofnaerrchen? N00b time strikes again.

Copy paste to the adressbar.

It will open hidden options. The option should turn every page to dark mode..

I don't have an alarm clock, I just have the PC scheduled to present TPU's front page at dawn.
 
I actually really hate the fact this website doesnt have a native dark mode. I use dark reader as well, but would prefer it be standard.
 
I've now got my retina's some extra life in them.
 
I like it because its different :)

I've come here at 3 in the morning on my phone in bed and pow gotta put it down because of the tears :D
 
Just forgot what colour scheme I'd set TPU as, was bracing myself and then ah, black and grey instead of pure white. Used to be like a snowball in the face every morning lmao.

Why not use the Dark reader plugin?
It works very well on most websites, I found it to be better than using dark mode that some websites offer.

I like dark mode too and think W1z should invest in creating one given the level of demand. It can only make his popular site even more popular, a win-win for all.
 
I would like to be able to use dark reader but at my work place, plug-in can't be installed.

Use the chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark as Hofnaerrchen so kindly said earlier. Worked for me.
 
this is my only remaining daily visit outside Slashdot without a dark mode - certainly would appreciate
 
Smartfox here..... :D
 
I say call it to a vote again.

Times change as do peoples opinions. However, without hard nubers to convince him, W1zz is unlikely to put in the effort.
 
It can't be that hard to add the function though yes a lot of people are lazy or they aren't allowed due to work which I completely understand. I'll probably end up getting the plug in but... Yeah would like the function like 11 Forum has it

On and that plug in is only available for desktop but I'll add it in the mean time

Hi,
I don't really care for dark mode so I don't use it
People don't use dark paper in real life so all dark mode does is mess your vision up
Plus I 'm not a vampire so I do live in daylight :laugh:

@W1zzard could alway reach out to other forums using the same format and get a theme they use
Elevenforum for example z3r010 = John is the owner there

Check them out on the bottom of the sites page

I'm apart of this Forum so and they have a toggle switch. When your on desktop whatever you have on it'll be on the mobile site

Hi,
Yep toggle uses the main dark or light theme.
