I'm gone for like 2 days on a sled dog trip and come back to this god awful CSS? Sorry, but who came up with this? If we want to be taken somewhat seriously and a viable alternative, this is not the way, imo.
Anyone else, or am I just an asshole?

none of this is permanent...all of these images are made by users here and meant to be cycled out. Did you try the dark mode design?
Remember, there's an entire new generation emerging to consider that goes for this aesthetic.
Yes, I've tried dark mode (which I still fuckin' hate - black and blue is raping my eyes) and glad it's not permanent. I guess I can see where you're coming from, but, to me it's quite visually displeasing and a wee bit too TopMind ish. IDK, maybe it's just me. Not sure if you remember, but I did the CSS and design over on https://old.reddit.com/r/AlternativeHistory/ (Turn off night mode on RES to see if you have it on). You can be "far out" and still look sophisticated and approachable.
Would prefer a bit of green meself. Dark mode. Only you have the power to prevent eye raping. Maybe not but help is appreciated.
I am old and with poor eyesight. For me, a dark mode is way better for reading than a white background. Maybe give readers a choice - one for the young and one for the old. Also in your design efforts keep in mind some readers are on PCs and some on phone. Hard to optimize for both, case in point Microsoft and how they butchered Windows trying to make it work for both monitors and tablets.
