Windows-Auto-Night-Mode

>It's not wrong nor misleading at all. Yeah it totally is and I explained why. >Who cares if they keep working A lot of people. >if the only way to get dark mode is to custom render the whole UI yourself Most the apps I use support dark mode: Chrome, FF, Notepad++, Jellyfin, Qbittorrent, SumatraPDF, Signal, Wiztree, WinSCP, and others I'm forgetting. Seems like it's not an impossible task for the developers. And on Github you can find FOSS apps[1] that have implemented light/dark mode switching for their UI, so you can just copy what they're doing if you don't know where to start.

I use https://github.com/AutoDarkMode/Windows-Auto-Night-Mode to automatically switch Windows and a handful of apps to dark mode / light mode depending on sunset. I think its counter productive to have dark mode enabled all the time and I can feel my eyes strain when using it during the day. Windows, VS Code, Office 365, Edge and a handful of websites that follow the OS settings switch themes. I wish more laptops or screens had ambient light sensors and I would use that instead to trigger the theme switch. Maybe theres a way to use the webcam? I also have a blue light filter on my glasses, and have enabled the OS blue light filter for a stronger effect when its night.

https://github.com/Armin2208/Windows-Auto-Night-Mode I've recently started making use of this app. Since websites and applications are starting to read the Windows dark / light mode setting (VSCode included), my desktop switches dark mode on automatically for many apps and websites in addition to the blue light filter. Some apps aren't perfect and may need a restart like MS Outlook, but many others work well.

I found https://github.com/Armin2208/Windows-Auto-Night-Mode to be better for auto-scheduling.
