Dark mode?

Post by 5MinuteRetro »

Forgive me if I've missed something obvious...

I mostly use this site at night. It's occurred to me tongight for the first time that I'd quite like a dark mode. Does this site have one? And, as an aside, why isn't this just a browser-based option? I pretty much just want to click a button to turn any website into a form of dark mode, whenever I want.

Yes, go to your user control panel and then board preferences, choose ZX ProSilver Dark.

Something's wrong there - BRIGHT black shouldn't be distinguishable from NON-BRIGHT :?
