I have no idea if it's even possible or if it already exists but a dark mode for the forum or similar to the way you can change the theme of Discord would be cool. Almost everything I view on the computer that involves a lot of reading or watching I put the background on dark mode if it's available.

Thoughts?

Seems like a good idea, idk how it works but even if it takes time it should still
be considered.

It would work like some kind of toggle, switch or something. Just like on Discord.

iirc staff said it's too much work in the past

try the stylish web extension. there's 2 different dark themes for the forum on that.
