Saves your battery. Easy on eyes. Dark theme is just nicer, what am I missing?

I get the impression that the preference for dark mode tends to be more common in Millennial/Gen-Z men.

As an older Gen-X, I cannot stand having dark mode on during the day or light mode at night. I use auto whenever it is available. I don’t know why!

My daughter and her female friends do not have dark mode during the day. My younger coworkers often have dark mode at work, but only the male ones.

I’m curious about those who use dark mode all the time: were you born after 1980 and male?

Millennial woman here. Dark mode all day every day, but I'm also able to keep my office fairly dim. Unfortunately the main program I use for work doesn't have a dark mode option.
