    As someone who finds that most “dark mode” offerings aren’t dark enough, I don’t understand how they can tolerate it either. I suspect it’s rather like spicy food: given enough exposure, you don’t notice it’s spicy (or bright) until reaching a level far above what people who aren’t exposed to it on a constant basis would think was acceptable.

      I like that analogy, because I love spicy food and many things I consider “mild” are too hot for others.

      But surely exposing yourself to that much light causes actual problems like eye strain and poor sleep (esp. at night).

        The thing is, would they make the connection? Some people aren’t very good at linking up cause and effect where the link isn’t practically screaming in their face.
