The light theme seems more popular than I expected. I use the light theme too but, when cataract came knocking last year, I learned the hard way the importance of the dark theme.

That is interesting. I am in the 38%.

During the process over a couple of years of having a detached retina fixed and then the subsequent cataract operation due to side effects of the first operation I stayed with light themes on all of my devices.

I still find dark themes harder to use. To the point where I will not use websites that either do not have a light theme or default to a dark one.

We all react differently to the changes we experience as we age.

@amoroso Note aside, the most important thing of all is that you've got a healthy sight back. Now that's a great reason for a christmas toast, so cheers to that!

@the_wub Really interesting indeed.

@haitchfive Absolutely, the best Christmas present ever.
