Definition: dark mode


A computer or mobile screen that displays light-colored text on a dark background. Dark mode is considered to cause less eye strain for large headings but not for reading paragraphs of text. An option today in operating systems and applications, dark mode was the only display technology in the first monitors (dark background with white, green or amber text).
