Controversial opinion: if your monitor is set to the proper brightness for the room's ambient light, light or dark theme becomes a matter of preference. If you're in a completely dark room with your brightness set to 100%, then of course a light theme won't work.

Depends on the person's eyes as well. I have a pretty bad astigmatism that makes dark mode god awful to read.

Thank you! I hate how many people act like dark mode is The One True Way these days. No, I don't want to use feckin' dark mode, I'm sorry I don't have your 1337 h4x0r eyes. I have shoddy astigmatism eyes and find it very uncomfortable to use dark mode.
