   trying a light theme on mastodon for the first time and I have legitimate trouble parsing what's going on

     @schratze i am convinced these different designs should be done by different designers

     or, you know, designers, and not web developers who just stare at code all day

     There is this fundamental problem with light and dark themes where a lot more effort gets put into one over the other
     On mastodon for example, everything is just a plain white background on the light theme. There are different shades of dark grayish blue in the dark theme, at least I think so??

     @schratze i started to notice that at around the time when dark themes started trending in everything, that was the time when light themes started suck in everything.

     we had completely good and even brilliant light themes for a quarter of century, but apparently nowadays making them is an impossible task.
