Discussion on: Why Most Developers Prefer The Dark Theme IDE?

I would like the dark theme, but I have to switch between the dark IDE and the light background websites and that ruins my eyes. The solution would be to switch the desktop to completely dark mode (via xfce4-night-mode, customized .vimrc to toggle background at night, etc.) and also view the websites in night mode, but I think that would be more work than advantage.

I’ve tried to switch to dark mode several times because I want to try it, but I’ve never been really successful. What technical solutions are there?

I use an extension called Dark Mode in my chrome website to toggle between dark and light mode. You can give a try.
