Why dark mode is.. so dark?

Hi,

I’ve been a happy Zotero user for years, and I really appreciate the addition of a native dark mode. Previously, I relied on the zotero-night plugin, which worked well for comfortable reading.

In the current native dark mode, the background is pure black and images appear inverted, which makes longer reading sessions difficult. A slightly softer dark background (e.g., dark blue) and leaving images in their original colors would greatly improve readability and user comfort.

Is there a plan to change this?

    You can disable dark mode for PDFs while keeping it for the app using the application menu: View → Use Dark Mode for Content. This will also disable inverted colours for images.

    Yes, the current beta supports customisable themes.
