for god's sake the brightness of forums is painful.
Note for mods: this seemed like the best place to suggest it, if there is a better place, by all means, move it
EDIT: I just realized that you guys don't control the forum software, so you can't do it. However, I have found a workaround. Simply go to chrome://flags and search for the "force dark mode" flag and enable it. Simple. Or just use dark reader.
