Night, without a doubt, always night, ever since you introduced the choice years ago.
Day is so......bright.
From memory, wasn't the previous UMD incarnation dark too?...I think that's why my pref was for night. ...so now you know MM ...and my money is on a huge majority for night.
I hadn't even realised there was a "night" setting. Now, having tried it, I prefer the "day" setting, it seems more natural to read black text on a white ground like the vast majority of newspapers books and magazines. White on black(or any other colour) seems a bit gimmicky.
I used to use vt100 terminals (if you know what that is, you know how that dates me) in inverse video mode, which somewhat resembles the Day mode here. But I find I like the Night mode better, because it reminds me of what the web was like back in the 1990s.
I prefer "Night" mode, probably because I remember the original UMD which was a dark purple colour, and for some reason I think black text on a white background doesn't really suit a website dedicated to a sexual fetish, but as other people have different views it's nice that you are democratic enough to offer the choice to individuals.
I dislike white-background websites, Facebook has a lot to answer for. On paper, yes, black on white is easier to read, but on a screen glowing text on a dark background is easier to read and as Leila said less likely to cause a headache.
Plus the Internet is meant to be the future - for those of us old enough to remember the time before, glowing lines on dark screens was where the future was at.
Well thanks for voting everyone. I had no clue what the results would be, but I think it's interesting that most chose the night mode. It's the original color scheme of the site. When I changed it to white years ago, when all the rage was making things look "not adult," people rebelled, so then I put the dark mode back in as an option!

I also didn't mention that there's an automatic mode that switches based on the time! Though it's currently hardwired to the EST time zone
