Dark mode LTT and Techquickie videos?

[Guest]

 

We have Linus talking about dark-mode for another time, I love dark mode but i have noticed repeat videos about it but.... this time I felt my eyes squinting while watching the video. As linus talked about dark mode he stood infront a white eye drying background. so Ithought this video which is surrounded by a dark mode youtube, what if the video itself was also Dark mode'ed?

 

So heres the idea how about instead of flat white backgrounds in videos replace them with a "dark" one. I hope someone in LTT at least test the idea on a existing video that uses a white plain background.

Turn on a light is not really valid criticism, only thing I can guess a black background be worse in direct sunlight, and either if you like the appearance

 

Edit: there Quoted!

While I admit it would have been a good gimmick for this video given the contents, changing the entire look of the show isn't a good idea from their standpoint. Tech Quickie has always been black shirt on white background and probably always will be, that's the brand.

He made the thread though, so he auto-follows it, so he can.

 

This never happened.

I did a dumb. Ignore that. I thought you quoted Slottr for some reason.

Quoted him now, I don't use these forums as much as I should.

Often Tech Quickie videos tend to have images appear on the screen, so having a white background benefits being able to see the images better.

 

A black background in contrast would make viewing images that pop up on screen particularly difficult in hindsight.

I think it would look out of place to be honest.
