Hello I'm new here.

I think the Title says it all...(And said it seemingly false, i apologize, in the early Days or at least where i live, Nightmode and Darkmode were synonym)

I have searched as good as i could under this Whiteness Torture, but "Nightmode" unbelievably --OK maybe Dark Mode would have been better-- just brought up 2 Posts which doesn't belong to the Forum here!

Therefore where is it? I need it...

Can One also just have green on black Linux Terminal Primitiveness instead of this "Win3.1" GUI Look?(Didn't want to be offending, Linux probably had such GUI's too, back in the Day, but until somewhat around 2003 i never was able to reach Runlevel5 with my Hardware, so i only know that when it comes to "Ancient" GUIs)

Thanks in Advance for fast Responses, so that i could pull off my Sunglasses --they're nice and do the Job on Sites without Dark Mode, but on the other hand the 'OBEY' Signs everywhere distract a little Bit ;D--

If you learn CSS you can make your own dark mode. This is mine, ugly and far from perfect but dark!



Also, your browser may have a dark mode extension.

I tried to set WSL (original not WSL2) up as a dark terminal - bloody fiasco. Gave up.

Why don't you just turn the brightness down and/or use redshift/night-light (depending on environment).

Thanks for your Replay, so in other Words this Site has None natively?
I'm more the 'Oblivion' Color Scheme Guy than "Solarised", but I of course would rather take that, than what we have now --so get in Touch with the Makers of the Site if you'd like to share it-- Are you then intercepting and spoofing the original CSS with the Web Dev Mode of Firefox, or how does this come to Effect after i would have learned CSS?

But sadly i fear my Life is already hard enough with just the Mastery of Linux, therefore i think i wont get into Web Dev as well just to don't have to visit this Site with Sunglasses, but thanks for the Tip with Dark Modes for Browsers, i'll have a Look at that, if it doesn't require to install something, since i don't particularly like to install random Stuff from Others.

You were helpful, but if you don't mind, i'll accept the Answer later, when it is clear that there will probably not come any Guru along which knows where the Dark Mode or Nightmode(as i falsely named it as it seems), hides or clearly states that there isn't One, what i almost can't believe. This also lets it the Time, that maybe the Site Owners could recognize, that there is a Demand for such a Thing if they really never thought of that.

Hmmm, WSL? as a Linux Veteran you probably don't talk about Windows Subsystem Linux, which i could not exactly relate to the Topic now, but anyway, you're welcome.

I just can't stand the Color 'white' in any Intensity, but thanks anyway for the Tip

I am a Linux advocate, not bigot. I find it easier to just roll with the options.

...and....
If it's such a problem for you, did you try putting something like, "dark mode for all sites" into a search-engine???
https://www.howtogeek.com/446198/how...google-chrome/

Want to suggest something?? Post it in the correct forum, such as "LQ Suggestions & Feedback". And you can stop with the theatrics about how 'bright' things are, needing sunglasses, etc....if it's that bad for you, its again surprising you haven't taken the options that syg00 gave, which is just turning down your screen brightness, or using any of the LOADS of redshift/color-shift tools available already.

Who uses that GoogleStaPo Crap on e FLOSS System anyway? 0.o
But yeah, maybe Firefox has this too, i --as i already pointed out-- just don't like to install Addons for security Reasons.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't we here exactly in 'LQ Suggestions & Feedback' where i originally posted it --or at least wanted to--? Captain mo drunk than I'm drugged perhaps?

I surf on a Rasperry Pi V1.2(Only EEPROM and natively Spectre free Machine i know of/can get my Hands on with slightly enough Power for what i need) with only 1GB RAM and a 64Bit Debian XFCE, so KDE and probably GNOME who can do this, aren't really an Option and just wearing Sunglasses for here was way faster than to look out for such Stuff, but you are of course free to be a bit more constructive and suggest something Lightweight, that runs on ARM64 and don't messes XFCE up Just as an Exercise of course, since i already stated, that it won't help much, because i hate every intensity of white, and i also already apologized that i wrote Night Mode instead of Dark Mode, I'm a Bit nostalgic i must say, the two Things were the same not long ago, but yes, since some Specialist came to the Conclusion, that One doesn't necessarily need a dark Theme at Night, but to just make this Color Shift, it clearly differentiate now...

Sites run 24/7 and serve all time zones so it make no sense for them to change appearance based upon time
(night mode presumes the site knows if it is night where you are. I could figure that, but expecting
everyone else to be okay with that is unrealistic) It is better to set dark mode or do redshift on your
local machine to implement a "night mode" for yourself.

I am currently running Plasma, so I cannot easily test how you set that on XFCE.
Some browsers have, either native or via an extension or plugin, a way to redshift just the browser,
but that requires overriding the site colors and can have unfortunate side effects. Were I you I might
give that a try.

Anyone who wants to...and that is one link among many you can find if you try.
And that isn't an add-on, but a browser setting/configuration. And you can go into Firefox and override site settings with your own for background/font...and set them to be whatever you want.
We are..my mistake.
So you have options:

• Adjust Firefox natively to look however you want
• Install an add-on (which for some reason you won't do)
• Use Chrome/Chromium and use the link as suggested
• Wait and maybe Jeremy will have a dark mode option

All fine, sorry for the Fuzz, i seemingly irritated People with my wrong wording that occurred because here where i live Nightmode and Darkmode were once basically synonym.
So of course i didn't expect a --good as is-- nostalgic Site like this one to have Youtube Features like adjusting their Colors to Day/Night Cycles and such, which in my Case in the Cave doesn't matter anyway, so i really just meant a Dark Mode that one can chose --which i thought a Site for Linuxers would certainly had, since Roses are red and Terminals are black and Everything else is usually on Linux also made for People who hack predominantly at Night when the Zombies sleep--, since as it seems in Firefox there are only preinstalled dark Themes, but they sadly don't change the Appearance of a Website, so i had to probably install Stuff from untrusted Sources, and one just doesn't do that.
So yeah, i think this would be nice if this Site could have this configurable, i even thought that it has, because there was some Options here to set Backgrounds and Text somewhere, but it didn't seem to do much, when i played around with it, therefore i came to ask, if i maybe did oversee something.

Thanks for the Tips and yes, such Plugins may be rare --and from untrusted Sources--, because they will brake many Sites Designs, so it would be good, if Sites just offer Color Themes them self that this doesn't happen on them

Richard Stallman would kill you for this enlightened Statement XD Nice Windoze Sign you had today BTW., and i already thought that it is horrible that this Site seemingly thinks I'm on Arch Linux ;D Do they Port Scan us for that, or how do they come to those wrong Conclusions, since my Agent String shouldn't state something about Arch?

Can you elaborate on that one?

Wow, you're now officially the first ranting Troll i ever have seen to be able to apologize for his Errors

Firefox Dark Theme cant change Website Colors, and for the Rest I'll wait for your Reply.
Every Addon from untrusted Sources i would have to check the Code first.
I really don't get why People are using this Crap, the only positive Thing i can say about Chromium is that it is a little bit more Lightweight on weak Machines like Raspberry Pis, but apart from that i hate it, this Shit even did open a Server with open Ports once i had to use it because it had a Security Feature i needed for Jitsy that Firefox hadn't at the Time, but i really found it annoying, that i had to search for quite a While how to close this useless Server/Attack Surface --his own Name Resolver or Avahi shit, don't remember right--, then not even just with Clicks, but a specific File had to be created somewhere obscure and after the next Reboot, the open Ports silently were nonetheless already back again. Not to mention that even the "Free Software" Variant doesn't let you install Youtube Downloaders and probably other Stuff that goes against Googles Will... Fuck that Shit...
Jeremy is Browser or an Admin here?

Off Topic, but i don't open a Thread or search my Eyes bleedy for that:
Does giving Reputation as you seem to desire has a Cost?

Ask the site owner; and if looking things up is too hard for you, don't ask others to do it and give you answers.
If you don't know how you find the settings for your own browser, there isn't much we can help you with.
Again, grow up.
Pay attention; I did not say "dark theme". I said adjust Firefox settings; that means you click "Settings" in Firefox. Since you're so advanced, you can find the place where you can override site settings to put whatever colors you want.
Again, if you want to know if there's a browser named "Jeremy", go look. And it might even occur to you to do a user lookup for that name here too...or look at the LQ Rules. Or the FAQ. Or any of the many documents here.
Don't care if you do or not, and don't 'desire' it at all. Appears that this site, StackExchange (and probably many others) aren't up to your exacting standards as far as usability and user content. So why do you bother to sign up, rather than using your 'talents' to create your own forum?

And it's funny that you think that using profanity, insulting folks, and ranting about things will make people want to assist you. Does that work for you in real life?

You can make LQ look however you wish by overriding a web pages css and inserting your own. A couple of examples with wild colors on purpose.

Edit:
And before you ask me how to do that with "your" browser. I don't know how firefox would do that. Probably a plugin for it. Firefox has more plugins than you can shake a stick at.

I did it with QtWebengine. Ignore site css and use your own.
