Do not start a headline with “Darkness reigns over Wikipedia”!!!
The year is 2024, hacker news stands strong as only remaining website to not offer darkmode.
Thou art forbidden to peruse our content in the dead of night; verily, our content is for the light of day alone.
GG
Get on my level.
How long were you searching for “worse than Comic Sans” before you landed on that one?
That purp though, fully behind it
“Getting paid is weird and sometimes hard” Wtf…
spoken by a true philosophy major
Just hacker things
Gotta get Hack, its an HN client/front-end. Beautiful and has all that stuff, otherwise the website is very non-addicting to me, I’ll give them that.
Thanks, I ended up getting harmonic. Seems to do the job. It’s baffling that hacker news is like that
Have you heard of lightbulbs?
These are dark times
Indeed.
No, thats the job hunting website. Wikipedia is the one anyone can edit historical facts.
(Which is apparently a workspace AI company)
If you are on desktop and you aren’t sure how it works, try out this Wiki page and in the top right corner you can see an “eyeglasses” looking icon. Click that and set it to Automatic or Dark.
Very happy to see it come to wikipedia!!
But I think it also needs some polish. The contrast is too high and the blue on black of the hyperlinks is too garish for sure.
The Washington Post: “Democracy dies in darkness”
Wikipedia: “Knowledge that is shared in torchlight is fucking awesome”
Democracy dies in darkness
From what I’ve seen, it dies in plain sight to standing ovations
Finally the l33t hax0rz from Anonymous can browse Wikipedia in peace
Dark mode, night mode, light-on-dark design, or whatever you want to call the version of computer content that doesn’t feel blindingly bright at night…
Don’t wanna be that guy, but these template news-article openings always make my brain hurt. Come on, as if everyone has ever called it anything else than “Dark mode”.
I thought this was gonna be about Wikipedia finally shutting down because nobody donates
democracy dies in dark mode
I can’t be the only one who doesn’t see well with dark mode.
You’re not, but having both is awesoooooome!
A long time coming, but because of their recent changes in the past couple of months if I have JS disabled on Wikipedia I either have an obnoxiously large blank margin on the right, or I get pop-up annoyed by this dark mode announcement with JS enabled and private tab browsing.
Yeah, I noticed that the JavaScript bloat is slowly taking over Wikipedia.
yeah, cant say im huge fan of the new margins, it’s starting to look more and more like every article tabloid site ever.
LOL took 'em long enough.
Such innovation
