Hi Lior, if possible could you brief us all how well V1 performed outside the tech/makers community?

@mukilan I don't have qualitative figures since we are not collecting user data :) However, based on talking to hundreds of users, I can say the majority of Darkness users are in the tech community. Could be developers, product managers, designers, marketers, etc. Some are not from the tech industry but are knowledge workers, such as lawyer or academics. All of the above are people who spend significant amount of time in front of a computer screen. We also have quite a few users which are visually impaired users, from which I learn that the increased contrast of the dark theme helps. People working late at night (either night shift workers, or just night owl freelancers) who find dark themes more suitable than an annoying bright glare. We're also got a few senior and elderly users. Overall, if I had to guess, I'd say about 60% of our 120,000 users are from the tech industry, 20% are knowledge workers not from the tech industry, and 20% are casual users or people who use it to aid with visual impairment.

Looks super good! Only thing missing for me is support for slack!

@fotiskarioris Thanks Fotis! Agreed, Slack is definitely one of the next websites we should work on (already has Gmail, Inbox, Messenger support, so Slack would make a lot of sense).

@liorgrossman The absence of slack kept me from instantly going pro! You have done an amazing work!
