Twitter Dark Mode: Twitter to soon have only dark mode, says Elon Musk

The rebranding of Twitter to X is now in full swing. The official Twitter account has been shut down. On the web and Android version, the bird has been replaced by the logo X. The logo is also set to go some other changes. It seems like a lot is happening and Elon Musk is set to bring another massive change. Musk feels that X should only have dark mode. “This platform will soon only have “dark mode”. It is better in every way,” Musk said in a reply to a tweet.

Musk’s tweet does indicate that users will not have the option to move to the light mode. Currently, Twitter gives users the option to choose from both the modes. It also has a “Dim” mode which is a darker shade of blue. So the background is completely black but is still sort of dark. It’s not clear whether the Dim mode stays on Twitter or not.
What is dark mode?

As the name suggests, dark mode is nothing but an interface setting that changes the colour scheme of an application, website, or device from predominantly light colours to predominantly dark colours. In dark mode, the background is usually black or a dark shade of gray, and the text and other UI elements are displayed in lighter colours. This contrast reversal makes the content easier to read in low-light environments and can also reduce eye strain.
Is dark mode beneficial?
In low-light conditions or during nighttime, staring at bright screens with a predominantly white background can lead to eye fatigue and discomfort. Dark mode, with its muted colours, can alleviate this strain and provide a more comfortable viewing experience.
Blue light, which is emitted by most electronic displays, has been linked to disruptions in sleep patterns and potential eye damage with prolonged exposure. Dark mode, especially when combined with blue light filters, can reduce the amount of blue light reaching the eyes.
On devices with OLED or AMOLED screens, dark mode can save battery life, as each pixel in these displays emits its own light.
