🤣🤣. Yes you are right. Something like the one below is way better for me. Please whatever it finally ends up being, I beg to have an option for true amoled dark mode too, like Apollo for Reddit did back then.

The theme for nairaland is green. Which makes sense in so many ways I can’t even explain. Like when you think of Nigeria in colors? is it green, gold or blue you immediately think of? How about red and blue? US, UK etc

They just need to get the dark mode colors right. Something that feels good on the eyes and attractive to the brain. Someone that thinks and feels in colors will get that right, The current one feels confusing and I just had to switch back to light mode

What you posted is bland. It might drive away more people or get hardly used.

That has already been done. See the icon on the top right in the screen grab

Yeah thanks, seen it now. It's not perfect but its better than nothing

anything green, defeats the purpose of dark mode. An oled dark mode saves more battery in an oled device.

Right. As a single user with a technical opinion

You think the rest of the users care about battery savings or have oled devices?

A feature might be perfect and have no users

not a single person will complain because Nairaland implemented an optional OLED dark mode. I have been a programmer for a while and I’ll tell you for free that implementing a proper dark mode attracts more user even. The whole theming thing you are talking about is not darkmode.

Seun:
Looks as if you prefer blue to green?

The next will be a total overhaul of the posting section. Change from this manual stuff to Rich Text format system.

Keeping the fingers crossed.

And for the dark mode, let it use system mode, it will automatically select the mode from the users device settings.

It will be easier for Seun since he is using coding assistant.
