Why is it black and white? Where's the blue?
Man this new dark mode is awful

Wow, the new search bar. If you want to search by user you have to click into it. WTF is up with UI designs nowadays?
It's really bad, the dark blue links make it impossible for me to read unvisited thread titles. This happened before when they first introduced the dark mode, and they fixed the color scheme within the month, so maybe we'll get it resolved.
This is super amateur UX design, the prior design was fine, change for change sake and making it worse at the same time. Well done R (is that what they are called now? Did Elon invest in rivals?)

I agree the Blue is very hard to read.... just make it white.
They also made the notification text white. So it looks like you've already read that notifcation. This is awful, lmao.
I'm struggling with why they chose white. Literally make the blue text white, and the white text blue. And it's fine.
It was perfectly fine the way it was before. I’m glad someone else hates it. I refuse to go light mode, though.
I may have to go light mode. Seems the colors are right on light mode. This is brutal.
I feel ya bro. Couldn’t read the titles at all when I was outside. Barely when I’m inside.
Yea light mode is A-OKAY.... but for us Dark users no bueno.
Anyone showed up to tell you they like it and you always complain?

I had to switch to white. This redesign went to the lowest bidder. Not very well thought out or polished. 
This awful. Go back to the way it was.
Go to the more Tab....and click access...display...languages.
Then change your background to the white default

Even on light mode the ''like, quote, reply'' and the post reply button is black and white. LOL
the light is better than the dark
neither are very good and both look like a sixth grader did them

I have a book in UX design, it may be a little dated. It says 1989 on the first page.
Just kidding on the copyright date, lol.
I was never on dark mode but I don't understand why a change was in order. No need to "fix" something just for fixing sakes.
It's a recent trend in website/app design. Change UI just to change.
In all my time on message boards, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a change that the users liked or wanted
Companies are constantly changing UI's. The only modern UI I enjoy is the PS5's. Steam UI isn't bad either.
I prefer dark because it seems easier on my eyes, and it's much easier on your battery.
You two guys really don't believe this change makes it very difficult to read? Don't think this is any example of crying about something rather than a legitimate change that makes reading the board extremely difficult. What's wrong with letting those in charge that the change was truly a bad one. Glad you can read these titles way better than the rest of us.
I use dark for most stuff, but I never did here. Guess it’s a good thing I didn’t. The light is okay. It will take some getting use to.
I’m a teacher, so I am use to change just for changes sake. In teaching and government bureaucracy in general, it seems like it’s a rule of thumb that you have to change stuff every once in a while, even when things work perfectly fine.
My wife works for the County Clerk and if you have licensed your vehicle this year, you know about the new system there and how much of a nightmare that has been so far. They implemented it in January and still haven’t gotten it to work right.

My wife and I were both teachers and I know exactly what you mean about change for changes sake. Rarely were the changes for the better and this one wasn't here either.
Just needs a few tweaks. Hopefully it will get adjusted.
This goes back to " If it ain't broke don't fix it . " Why do people think change is better on some things. Not a fan of this.
I use dark mode whenever I can because if my phone screen is too bright it triggers my migraines if I stare too long. When I first saw the new changes I thought the page hadn’t loaded completely or correctly- it is that bad.
Like others have said, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Hopefully they either change it back or polish this new turd.

You are right... just switched back. They removed the blue and replaced it with white.
how do you get into dark mode? is that an app? i'm over here on dial up.
