The important point here is optional, because if you just blacken everything out now, then you’ll get tired of it, and in 2 years you’ll definitely want to return or switch to red, green or any other fashion.

By the way, I have a lot of experience with dark mode, because all terminals used to be in dark mode by definition and we were very happy when we finally got rid of it after many years…

@DomiP

We certainly agree on the topic of electability, but otherwise it varies from person to person depending on their habits

What can be clearly proven by a study:

Black text on a light background is much easier to read for most people than light text on a black background.

That’s probably why the very fashionable dark mode trend has not (yet) broken out, at least in books and newspapers.

P.S.: By the way, the EOS4 of the TV boxes is “forced black” - so perhaps you should be a little careful with further dark mode requests to Swisscom…

You can choose dark mode!

Then it looks like this:

I just tried this out in the new Edge (Cromium) according to these instructions.

Happy Darking 😉

@DomiP

So system-controlled dark mode already exists today.

For example, in Firefox on my iPad, which I am currently using to write this post.

One click (or timed in the options) and you have this:

So I would also welcome a dark mode.

That’s exactly what I thought when I recently heard about “dark mode”!

- But if someone likes it, they should have the opportunity to make this “SETTING” on the device of their choice: something new more often & To each their own!

Oh, I haven’t even seen this thread yet.

A fat +1 for me.

Dark mode wherever possible.

I’m not entirely sure if I understood this thing correctly:

a) certain people would like SWISSCOM to enable “dark mode”?

b) with certain browsers can you set it that way?

c). Are there fears that if you now provide only EVERYTHING in “dark mode” (e-mail, community, My Cloud, etc.) it will make some people uncomfortable or not suitable?

So I would only be in favor of “dark mode”, if you can set it yourself!

Dear Domi,

Do you really believe that it is SWISSCOM’s job to set up this “dark mode” that you so covet, when there are already ways to organize it yourself. I have read in the contributions of various customers that, among other things: It is possible to set it up with “Firefox” and “Edge”!

Enforcing dark mode in the browser is one solution. Many websites no longer work and the display is sometimes incorrect.

It is always best if it is natively supported. The forum software may already offer templates.

Personally, I like dark mode better too.

But a choice of whether light or dark (with pink dots or whatever) might not seem so forced.

If all contributions from the Internet are decorated with colored dots - I don’t know whether photos and sketches will still appear clear and clear!

You have a mature opinion and clear ideas! I respect that, but personally I’m happy when each service has its own appearance (this way I know where I am at the moment and it provides variety)! The SWISSCOM logo is enough for me for the “corporate identity.”

Hello DomiP

With the Dark Background and Light Text extension with the Firefox browser, dark mode actually works.

But I think it takes a bit of getting used to

Stay healthy
