Darkmode on desktop?

[link3549]

Will eBay ever offer a dark mode on the desktop? I am talking about a built-in option that will allow us to choose it instead of downloading a third-party app.

This is a common request. I prefer dark mode myself.

Here on the forums there is a dark mode option in your profile settings.

On the eBay app there is a dark mode.

On the website? No dark mode available. I've seen some people force it with browser add-ons, but going that route can lead to unintended problems with page view.

In case you want to explore a tested option, I'm going to quote a post from @eburtonlab, one of the resident "tech experts" on this forum:

If you use a common desktop browser, take a look at an add-on called Color Changer. It allows you to set background, text and link colors independently using a color wheel, it remembers your default on/off settings for each site, and it allows you to turn it on or off with a couple of clicks using an icon in your browser toolbar. It does have a few unintended side effects -- some icons like the notification bell lose their color, and some images in pop-up windows are affected adversely -- but if harsh white backgrounds are bothering your eyes, Color Changer might be worth playing with.

I consistently use dark mode, although it's not fully compatible with some websites, resulting in black images. Nonetheless, I utilize Edge in dark mode and switch to InPrivate mode whenever necessary to view images that are obscured in dark mode.
