I've noticed this complaint is pretty common so I just made a thread about it.
Example:
Code:
[16:43:22]  the new look is actually give me a headache, I'm not joking
[16:43:32]  MY EYES MY EYES
[16:43:37]  I had to close out
[16:43:47]  *giving
[16:43:53]  its not easy for my eyes too lol
[16:43:57]  but possible
[16:44:02]  It
[16:44:03]  contrast between colours is shit
[16:44:05]  too much clutter
[16:44:05]

I second the motion that we need a darker theme. This bright new look is gonna make browsing in darkness/night quite troublesome.
I don't want to be rude or a grammar cop (okay, yes I do), but since this may actually affect you in real life I'll correct you.

It's notion, not motion.

Good to see I'm not alone in thinking this new theme is too bright...

Also agreed that a dark version (or even just a darker white version) is needed.

EDIT: Just realized there was a typo...

I wouldn't mind a darker theme too, but not due to my own complaints about brightness.
It doesn't look much different to before, as far as I'm aware.

Grammar cops have to be right.
Motion is actually valid in this case.

I know, but notion is more correct!

EDIT: Seriously though, I noticed it was right about 5 seconds after I posted. I guess I was both right and wrong, but when you mix the words they both come out sounding like each other, so I'll just go with wrong.

    I just recently picked up a n64 from a garage sell, and looking to mod it and add a HDMI port to it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3548173115...044&customid=4f3038da73b61afddf7e5e90f4153856
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'd like to find a power strip and HDMI selector built in 1 unit, so I can select which game system I want, and will switch to that hdmi, and power on that plug/power supply only, so don't have all game systems powered all the time, but can't find anything like. May just have to make something myself.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Maybe start a kick starter page and sell them, yea right. Big N would prob C&D me, not anything Big N related, but just because that's what they do nowdays. Then come out with they own in a year or so.

    @Xdqwerty, Nice. Which operating system are you installing?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, windows 10 and some linux distro like linux mint
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    dualbooth
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Speaking of which
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

    @SylverReZ,
    I also recall my brother downloded a "non bloated" version of windows 11 on his pc

    "Why debloat? Why not embrace and enjoy my bloat?" - Gates

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.
