Latchkey, would you be comfortable with HN adopting your dark mode styling as a user choice someday, if they came around to liking it? I really like it and I think it’s in the spirit of the site.

Thanks! A lot of it is AI with my own input, but I think it did a great job.

The code is all open source and people can do with it what they want. It is GPLv3, but I'd special license it to them as MIT without question.

I can't figure out how to toggle to Light Mode (maybe it uses the system setting?). HN is something I prefer to be in Light Mode but everything else in dark. Gonna remove until this is configurable.

Defaults to system. The toggle is in the top right corner of the navbar next to your karma.

That would be great! Please do.

That does not convince me to use your app? This is like calling someone's Kia shit and instead telling them to buy a Tesla, but just stating that it's better.

I'll stick to HN, thanks.

I'm pretty sure that will never happen, as it would've happened already by now. People can and do already use custom CSS or Dark Reader for dark mode.
