I appreciate the changes you made, but I do find it harder to read things on forum with dark mode on. If possible, could you make the color scheme switchable? So those who prefer the old light color template could turn dark mode off.
Add me to the chorus of those who would prefer that dark mode be an option rather than the only choice.
The most painful part of dark mode to me has already been identified by others -- where there are big bright white text boxes against the dark screen, my eyes try to adjust to the dark parts, and then as my gaze moves down to white blocks, it takes a moment for my eyes to adjust and switching back and forth is uncomfortable.
I also find it difficult to read pages even without big white boxes because the contrast between the bright white of the text and the dark background is uncomfortably high.
If having it be a user option is infeasible, it would be great to at least tone down some of the extreme high contrast elements to keep my eyes from having to constantly re-adjust to light levels.
Bug: it's not possible to select multiple toppings for the toast. (I mean, not at the same time! But I don't always have toast with just one thing.) If it's lunch time, how about a nice bit of cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of black pepper. If I feel like a sweet snack, I sometimes put on Lotus Biscoff spread (crunchy).
I don't like the dark mode, sorry. It's especially bad with all these white boxes everywhere.
Yeah, all the white boxes need to go. Contrast adjustments to the bright white text on dark background. Promoted content is clunky (also has the white background issue). It takes up the whole screen on mobile and leaves open space because of the odd number (3) of content, so I have to scroll down to see any forum categories. And my other critique is that I don't like the burgundy colors, particularly the large buttons like "post comment" or "new discussion." I just don't think it matches well with the scheme. But I'm pro-dark mode. It just needs some adjustments.

hahahhahah🤣

Gnutella? What the f*ck is it!!
NUTELLA per favore non offendete un paese intero mettendo una stra cazzo di G
Mamma mia
This was amazing lol
Made by the gods 🤩
this. i really don't like the dark mode, but can't find any way to change it on preference
when can we remove threads that we have started on our own. i have for example one , i wanted to remove myself, thinking it was a bug.
Dark mode Nice 🖤
Butter and honey, of course 😊
dark mode or light mode should be personal option. I for example can not read black text on blue background in poor lighting situation.
I would like to add my voice to the people asking for the ability to turn off dark mode. My middle-aged eyes find it extremely difficult to read.

Woo, awesome! I'm glad to see that the forum hasn't been completely forgotten :D
Seems like a good time to throw in some suggestions I had for some forum features, which are all possible with the standard Vanilla Forum plugins:
I always have my breakfast toast with hefty helping of XM

peanut butter gang (toasted bagel ftw)
dark mode gang (forever and ever, amen)
Dark mode should be an option. I’d like it to follow the device’s setting.
For anyone not in the US, jelly basically means jam.
But I picked jam, my own homemade plum jam, or maybe a bit of marmalade
Dark mode on the forum is preferred for me,. Less eye strain
Where is the preference to turn off DARK MODE that I never asked for?
Nice, but I don't see the button turn off dark mode!
I want to put the butter on MY TOAST!!! And dark mode was perfect!!🤩
Great job!!😘

@NianticThia Not a fan of the dark mode. Can't find the option to change back. Please advice.
Not so much a bug, as a limitation of Vanilla Forums current implementation on this site.

P.S. Morningstar Bacon on my buttered toast.
