What is the best way to display dark mode for forums?

[DYING_S0UL]

If you are using a chrome browser then you may try the force dark mode from the developer option. It is quite easy to use. You won't be needing any extensions or plugins...

Simply open the browser and in the new tab type chrome://flags and press enter. Then you will be redirected to the experimental tab. There you'll see a search box, in the box type "dark mode" and an option would appear named as "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents". Enable that and restart the browser.

Voilaa now you have dark mode for every page. And if you don't like it and want to revert back to the original, then simply disable that option.

I want to hear your reviews or maybe tips for activating dark mode to open the altcoinstalks forum.... or at least it can reduce my eyes from working too hard at night when opening a forum that is too bright (because it uses a bright blue background and is predominantly white)...

I am using Edge browser which has dark mode features. It's very easy to set from Edge browser without a problem. I also don't like bright screen which has made me look for an alternative. Maybe, yiu can try it.

I'm surprised it works really well. From now, i will always use this to reduce eye strain at night. Thank you for sharing this trick.

There is also a display setting with the Dark theme in the Firefox browser*, but it does not function on some websites, including the AltcoinsTalks Forum.
When I use this setting, sometimes switching tabs to websites that are not supported by dark themes can be very tiring for my eyes because of the sudden change of appearance from dark to light or vice versa.

Well, that happened with me also. Even though I am a dark theme user in everything, I cannot use dark theme on BTT nor Alttalk. It's just my eyes are used to the whitish theme of these two sites. So even if I try I can't adapt to it, it just feel irritating.

Regarding the dark mode of Firefox, I believe it is just a simple dark mode option. But the one I mentioned above for chrome, is a "forced" experimental feature. That could be the reason why it works for chrome but not Firefox.

I am looking for a built-in feature related to dark mode or night mode in Ms Edge, ... but can't find it in settings menu... if it is a built-in feature of Ms Edge, please show me.... to enable it...

If it comes with an extension, then what is the name of the extension used in the edge browser??

Sometimes it doesn't look perfect on the header of the page... and sometimes even for light colored backgrounds, it still displays the font in white... so sometimes it's not very clear... I've tried several modes available in experiments on chrome://flags , but none of them are better than Dark Reader.... however, I thank you, for letting me know about this feature that I think is quite hidden...

Wow this is nice because I have seen some good contributions to get some extensions and plug-in. Op I am also suffering from you are suffering too but what I normally do to control the eye pain is the phone dark mode and the setting the brightness of the phone to control light. If outside the house I use to brightening the light and if it is inside house I will dim the light (brightness). And if I brighten the light (phone screen) always, my eyes would be paining me until I took drugs before it would go down again.

So I see this thread as one of the useful thread for me in the forum. I appreciate all the contributors.

Hence the name "experimental feature", you can't always have it your way mate. But if you really need a perfect dark mode, you should consider using some plugins or a browser with a built in dark mode feature.

Apart from everything else, one thing I'm quite sure of is that if you are already a light theme user, you won't like the dark theme. I experimented with the dark theme out of curiosity, but I reverted back to the light theme within five minutes. I'm just not used to it, and it irritates me like crazy.

I believe this experimental feature started in 2024, CMIIW. Maybe you can forward your experience to their support team to improve it. I'm a bit confused as to why they made experimental features hidden like this. Is there a specific channel where a group of testers report their experience, and they don't want to deal with releasing a beta app, so they resort to flags?

Anyway, I do agree that Dark Reader works better for now. I wonder if they'll adapt Dark Reader's algorithm on their flags for future updates.

Yes, that's right, I also realize that it is a feature that is still experimental, like other experiments, it is natural to find imperfections....

For the use of dark mode, I actually only activate it at night with minimal light conditions... or when my eyes are really tired, and I want to save energy because there is still some work to be done... so dark mode here is not my habit, it is just an alternative according to the condition of the room and the fitness of my eyes...

It is not always used, but dark mode is very useful when needed.

Try use eye care function from your device first, reduce the brightness to the least and if this does not give the required results, then try to download an app that controls for device brightness, they automatically adjust to what you have set in for them, lastly, if you wouldn't mind, you can as well buy a colour balance screen in case you make use of a monitor, we need to act fast before things go wrong too much with our eyes.

Absolutely right, this has really help people and also most of the devices have it one their default settings while some don't have it.
So its good for one to use it first before considering the idea of using dark mode, because its not everyone that feel good while using it likewise not everyone also likes using their device with full brightness.
So for everyone's benefit, one should try using the default settings first.
