Twitter can sex dong tinh viet nambe an assault on the eyes, and not just because of its frequently distressing content. The microblogging website's default white theme can sometimes feel harsh and blinding, particularly if you're waking up in a cold sweat to check your notifications in the middle of the night. Fortunately, the microblogging platform offers a dark mode to help make those late night scrolling sessions a little easier — at least physically.
Twitter first introduced their dark mode option in 2016, initially calling it night mode. It then went even darker in 2019 by adding a third theme: the pitch black "Lights out" mode. This means there are now three shades of Twitter for you to choose from, whether you want it to be glaring white, black, or something in between.
Here's how to turn on dark mode on Twitter.
