    I wish light/dark mode switching would work in editors/IDEs at all. Kate/Kwrite apparently has that but it doesn’t work with Kvantum or i don’t understand the configuration enough. They should just have a “alternative editor theme” and switch to it on signal and be done. Light editor theme on dark desktop switch after 20 o clock burns my eyes.

      It does work, it’s just complicated to setup.

      In that picture, I’m using KDE applications that are flatpaks for Cosmic Desktop on PopOS with a Kvantum theme. I made a longer post here when I was searching for instructions for how to complete this recently.

      After my experience, I don’t really know what the best solution is for setting it up. I guess it would be nice if the major platform applications for like KDE were supported for dark mode by default on the DE. I don’t know, it really bothered me though.
