    LCD users won’t see a difference, neither will CRTs

    Dark mode does save power with CRTs. They shoot an electron beam into phosphors in order to display stuff on the screen - having a mostly dark screen means fewer phosphors need to be excited.

      I’m not going to argue about that with you, I’m so old I was online years before google, so I should have known better… but I’d still like to see numbers on that for smartphones.
