Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Your eyes adjust to light based on an average. If your whole room is dark and the only light is from your device, then your eyes are adjusted to the overall darkness, leaving the device screen outside of that range which causes the discomfor. Darkmode might prevent that from happening by lowering the amount of light from your device and matching it to your environment.
Dark mode on an OLED screen means less light is entering your eyes. The contrast between the text and the background might be way harsher in dark mode though. When in light mode, the text might not actually be black, it might be a dark grey or something. But in darkmode the contrast is white light against no light.
maybe a middle ground dark mode that has dark grey background and light grey text would be good for you
