+Hey,
+I did a stoop and switch to lightmode a few days ago.
+SO far, it feels comfy in someways.
+I chose [[https://github.com/catppuccin/catppuccin][catppuccin latte]] as the theme.
+But what I don't fully get is how application such as discord are so very bad in lightmode.
+Like, I am using a theme, [[https://github.com/catppuccin/discord][catppuccin discord]], to ensure that it looks like the rest of my laptop but it looks very off when it comes to notifications.
+Seeing that a discord has a new message, is almost hidden.
+This is also true for default theme, so it left me wondering if people think about light themes?
+I sure haven't, since I primarily have used darkmode everywhere I can for the last years.
+Spotify has not implemented this addition for ~10 years now, as seen in [[https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/All-Platforms-Light-Mode-option/idi-p/730341][this request]].
+It has 6k votes and is one of the ones with the most votes on the entire website.
+
+Anyway, I think the main thing that has really allowed me to do the switch is having a bluelight filter.
+I have been using one on my desktop for ages, barely thinking about it.
+My laptop has, however not had one due to mainly using it at day time and indoors.
+So now, I can go out and use it and not be surprised when having sunlight at the screen while using it.
+
+All this was done to procrastinate instead of studying for my exams in 2 respective 4 days, lel ;P.
