Saves your battery. Easy on eyes. Dark theme is just nicer, what am I missing?

    Some types of application I prefer light, some dark. But the premise is wrong:

    Saves your battery

    Only if you’re using OLED, which most people aren’t, and by very little. You could save more battery by using a low-power mode when you don’t need all the bells and whistles.

    Easy on eyes

    Debatable, different for different people.

    Dark theme is just nicer

    That’s not objective, it’s personal taste :)

      That doesn’t sound right at all to me. Majority of Internet traffic is on mobile, mobile devices far outnumber desktops, non-OLED phones are pretty rare
