Look at Answer in Progress's video on dark mode, the initial question is a different one about design, but it goes a bit in the difference and dis- versus advantages between dark and light mode.

    Light mode:
    Cons: blinds you when it's dark, is grating on the eyes, looks terrible
    Pros: can be used as a flashlight in a pinch

    Dark mode:
    Pros: looks cool, doesn't blind you, doesn't hurt your eyes, easy to read.
    Cons: cannot be used as a flashlight
