Dark theme

Any chance of having a dark theme option like many other forums?

Would help with eye burn, thanks.

definitely a chatGPT response, thanks...

If on laptop or computer try a Chrome extension called "Dark Mode - Dark Reader for Сhrome" that turns all webpages to dark mode (its quite basic and simply inverts colours in a lot of cases). But if looks like this if you're curious:

I find it difficult reading small white letters on a dark background, so unfortunately no good for me. :thumbsdown:
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.

Most software/websites these days have multiple settings to cater for users who dont like dark mode. You normally get Default Light, Default Dark or Auto Mode (it tracks the light/dark mode of the operating system) Eg if your phones in dark mode the site will be in dark mode if your phones in light mode then the site will be in light mode.

Ive not delved into PHPbb for a very very long time so not sure if it has dark mode support in the User CP. Might be worth looking into if someone gets bored.
