Now that Figma has a dark interface, does it inspire you to design products that support dark mode?

Only when it needs it or is acceptable, otherwise, there's no point.

@michael_andreuzza Hey Michael! How do you define if it's needed or acceptable? What stop you from supporting it in every project?
Well, @fmerian some UIs are not made to have dark mode.
For example, a hospital website...dark mode, ...maybe not?...psychological effects, is out of place...
Some of my apps, like colorsandfonts.com, It used to be dark for long time, but then I saw that the colours don't look the same, ... plus is a place where people comes to work, ...
Is just an example.
@michael_andreuzza Absolutely! I remember the early days of C&F and its light/dark interfaces. Still a source of inspiration. Thanks, Michael! 🙂
I think every website should have a dark theme- if not then the users who need dark mode will use an extension, which can decline the quality of a website.
I have astigmatism, and apparently a large population does as well. Dark theme is necessary to read a web page
Yes, our product supports dark mode. But we don't support light mode 💡
Yeah, we have started implementing dark mode, and the reason for decision is to have people focus more on the contents than the UI.
@djteknokid Fantastic! 🙌
What’s the most challenging part of implementing dark mode from your point of view?
Evidently, a significant number of people share this sentiment. The inclusion of a dark theme is essential for optimal web page readability.
@joe_gonzalez_23 thanks, Joe!
then, which app/website has a delightful dark theme from your point of view? would love to have your input in this Discussion.
