Done! You can enable by going to your Profile - Preferences - Interface - Color Scheme - and change the first drop down to Dark, like this:
Let me know if anyone has any issues with readability or otherwise!

@JoshFossgreen I just tried the dark mode and I really like it. I was wondering if there was a way to make the font white rather than gray so that it stands out better against the black background.

Hey Steve, I will look into that! Something funny is going on because I have white selected as the main text color, but it’s not showing that way in posts:

There’s an inherited css that’s setting the color to #777

I think white is used to highlight unread threads… Would be difficult if the standard font color were white as well.

The grey colour for marked threads is fine for that but for posts it really should be white. I can’t imagine the grey was done on purpose by Discourse.
Edit: I think the grey was specifically set for light mode so it inherits the same colour for dark mode. On desktop it’s still readable for me but on my phone with low contrast not so much.

Okay, it has been fixed! You called it @Leo , that CSS needed a tweak. Y’all let me know how it looks and if you have any issues!
FYI, if you end up dropping back into Light mode, it’s because I switched from having user-selectable colors, to user-selectable themes, so you’ll just need to go your Profile → Preference → Interface and choose the Dark theme.
