started using and learning linux from the console so there was always a nostalgic reason for me to have everything in solarized dark. the last 2 or so years my eye sight has dropped due to aging but also because of way too much time on a screen. I notice it especially during reading ebooks at night that a dark theme isn't doing me favors so switched to an e-paper like color and slightly reduced screen brightness for late night pdfs/ebooks reading. (redshift does nothing for me here). an epaper color is a lot easier on my eyes than dark mode. still use dark colors for terminals during my day work but am also considering changing this but maybe it's because my eyes aren't tired throughout the day as much as they're between 21:00 and 02:00 ...
