Exclamation Mobile Dark Mode *Beta* is Here!

hello everybody,

We are super excited to launch a new way to enjoy the Rennlist community from your mobile devices!

It's still a very early beta, but beginning today if you're logged in and visiting the Community from your mobile device, you can now choose a dark mode theme in addition to the standard 'bright' theme we've always had 😎

We also recognize that some of you would like to see a dark mode on desktop, we do too! Our mobile beta is helping to shape the desktop option, and our hope is to release dark mode for all browsers later this year. Thank you all in advance for your understanding.

Please log in from your mobile, turn the dark mode on using the Hamburger menu and let us know your feedback!

cheers,
robb

Happy that more sites I frequent have come to the dark side. Everything looks great so far, thank for this.

Much better and easier on the eyes.

Thank you! I really prefer dark mode and in general it looks great.
I stumbled into this marketplace posting that must have defined black text. Maybe you can parse out several dark colors and replace them with white or gray to solve for it?

Thank you very much for offering dark mode! My eyes are very happy now and I'm already feeling calmer. 👍
