If in the evening we find ourselves surfing the internet until night, keeping the computer screen on our favorite websites or working or reading and posting comments and posts on Facebook and Twitter, then it may be a good idea to use a dark theme to decrease the annoyance that the brightness of white and light backgrounds can do to the eyes.
The idea is to transform the graphic theme of any website you visit so that it has a dark themed design, to ensure better readability of the text, especially in the evening and at night, when the sites become too bright. difficult to look at.
Dark themes have become widely used in applications for phones and also in some video sites such as Youtube (see how to activate the dark theme on Youtube) and can work on almost any type of website, if properly modified.
It is not enough to invert the colors, but to change the pattern so as not to make the colors seem too strange and not to find oneself with elements that are no longer visible.
