How do you feel about some user interfaces not supporting dark more? 🤔

Question

Not looking at any sites in particular 👀, but I was just curious on what's your stance on the matter. Should all sites have light/dark modes for accessibility?

Qudsia Ali · Accepted Answer

Yes, I believe all websites eventually will start providing dark modes. Many website owners still do not think it is essential, so they are not doing it.

I use to think dark mode was a huge thing to try and build, having never done it before. But after being able to get it up and running in tailwind in under 2 hours https://twitter.com/jreynoldsdev... I have no idea why more sites don’t have it. I think chrome has a dev flag you can enable that’ll start converting all sites to dark mode for you, automatically 🪄

I think the dark mode is quite impressive to use. Every app developer should consider it.

@raf_underscore i'd say the demand is already fairly large, even if not outspoken! supply has yet to catch up.

I think there are some sites that dont have darkmode and thats good like it is for user friendly cases or it dont fits the business/page.
But others could support it like ph, i personaly use chrome darkmode extension for ph

I guess most websites should provide Dark mode as it is much better on eyes and also look quite good.

Ivan Ralic · Answer

I don't really care about dark mode, if user ask for it, they'll get it 😅

@qudsia_ali Maybe the demand for it is too low for it to be an issue 🤔
