Dear theme designers, unless you are designing an app specifically with OLED in mind... Do not use black as a main background colour.

It just looks horrible IMO, key example on good dark theme is the windows store and a example of horrible dark theming is the settings app.

And mini rant over.

    @Condor black does have its place as a main colour but not on desktop I think, on mobile yes when most phones have an OLED screen.

    A dark grey is just way more pleasing to the eye imo

    Black is nice.
    Dark grey is almost as nice.

    The only time I'll agree dark grey is nicer is when it's faintly textured, so unless you're doing that, give me black.
