I’m curious if the trend will flip again at some point. I definitely find dark mode to be easier on my eyes for a lot of stuff, especially coding. But I don’t rage when it’s not available.
I’m old enough to remember dark mode being the default because of monochrome monitors. And then later, people were ecstatic about the faux-paper-on-the-screen concept, and dark scrrens were very passe for a period.
Wouldn’t shock me if some future monitor tech that looks more like paper and ink flipped the preference/fashion again back to light mode.
When I use Obsidian, for example, I tend to like themes that look like papyrus or sepia type tones. Not too bright or too dark. Just kind of relaxing, to my eyes anyway.
I swear I’m the only one who can’t do dark mode anything. it genuinely bugs my eyes and I start seeing what can only be described as burn-in if I use dark mode for more than a could minutes.

For me it’s very much dependent on the topic at hand.
Coding, kbin, email, calendar, dark.
Still gotta work in light mode on word… just looks wrong otherwise.
