Seems dark mode has just become popular in the last 5 or so years. I don't recall it ever being requested or talked about 20 years ago. Some websites in the 90s used black backgrounds but applications had light themes. If a dark theme was offered, it didn't look right.

Maybe we can put that down to most of us using bigger screens nowadays and spending more time looking at them and being affected by the glare of the white backgrounds.

it was definitely requested 20 years ago (mid 2000s) and its been popular for at least 15 years, and decent for over a decade. The 1999s was 24 years ago my man.
