iOS status bar is near impossible to read in light mode (lemmy.world)

Is this common or unique to me? White text on the light background is fairly illegible.

On the helpful side, that’s not true:

Settings >> Appearance >> Uncheck “Use System Light/Dark Mode” >> Check Dark Mode.

On the unhelpful side, I have never seen the appeal of light mode. Curious why people prefer it?

Honestly during the day I personally find light mode easier to read. I understand this seems uncommon but the contrast “feels” better. I use the “True Tone” on iPhone though which makes the whites not so stark and blinding.

Same here, yeah. I also don’t enjoy seeing fingerprint smudges in broad daylight and light mode hides them better.
