I've made a simple port for Robb Owen's VSCode synthwave theme for Stylus for Hackernews.
It's really not complete yet, and may break at any time, but it works ok enough for me right now. If you want to try it out. Hopping it helps :)

#32> The glaring white background is absolutely horrendous. What is it that brings people to dark background teams? I'm genuinely interested. They were a necessity back when the quality of screens was worse, but today? Is it a fashion with many followers or is there some rationale behind it?

For me it's not that glaring.

On darker ambience dark colour schemes go easier on the eyes. I was a light-mode person until the office grew darker (because of some remodelations) and now I need dark mode to not feel the light attacking my eyes.
Also dark mode probably looks "cooler", less of an office job and more "hacking" vibes.
