I just had to look at it again as I only tried it out back when I got the Oasis2, before I had the 3. Yep, still as disturbing as it was then. Yikes makes my eyeballs wobble for some reason. Well not literally or course, just feels like it.

I have sensitive eyes though and I don't see well when it gets dark so that is probably why. But I could never read on any white text on black.

Or green on black as I remember some programs from back when. That stuff did a number on my brain.

Surely soon it gets to everyone, and those that actually like having that toggle there and using that mode often. It is still also in accessibility by the way to turn on and off.
I don’t like reading any Kindle in dark (without external lighting): it’s not comfortable at any light level, either it is too bright or not bright enough to afford sufficient contrast. Any backlit screen with Dark theme is far better for my eyes (and I Dark mode everything I can).

I do sometimes like Dark theme on Kindle with sufficient ambient light, so I’ll be happy when it shows up on my PW4’s.

I will use Bluetooth if and when they add TTS or immersion reading to Kindle. (VoiceView is too narrowly focused on accessibility and I don’t regard it as a substitute for less intrusive TTS)
