A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

It's not a matter of just light vs dark mode, it's about the proper brightness and contrast for the ambient light you're in, i.e. having a dark theme on a 100% brightness screen in the middle of the night is not something particularly clever (and the other way around - if a light theme feels too bright, it's your display that's too bright, not necessarily the theme). If you haven't done it, research easy ways to change the hardware brightness of your screens on the go - your eyes will thank you. ClickMonitorDDC is my favourite on Windows (it works well even if it's abandonware at this point).
I personally prefer dark mode most of the time, and not like white text on black background but rather something muted with a 50-ish % gray background. I occasionally switch to light mode for when I want more contrast and I can't bring the brightness any higher (e.g. if I bring my laptop outside on a sunny day).
