Why do developers include dark themes but not fully black?

More devices are including oled displays so what the fuck are they thinking?

who the fuck uses smartphones in 2017 anyway...

Holy shit, I can fully relate. It always hurts to see my oled display not getting used to its fullest and instead gets raped by a dark greyisch night mode.

Very true. I much prefer the pure black background that spaRSS uses.
>>
because fully black mode looks hideous 100% of the time
there should be a third option to enable that though, most of /g/ doesn't even care if something looks good
>>
Because that's SO 2005
Desaturated blue is so in right now
>>
>>58324174
It's easier to read if the background is not full on black.
>>
Pure black looks like shit.

Dark gray usually looks good and doesn't hurt your eyes.
>>
Developer here. I don't give a fuck about your OLED. I also don't include dark themes. White looks much better.
Thank you for your attention.

no they aren't

led displays, yes. oled? no.
>>
>>58325315
User here.
I don't give a fuck about your shitty application.
Even if I'll use it, I'll pirate it since I don't want to give any cent to shitty developers.
Stay fucked.
>>
>>58324174
Fuck OLED. I'm never buying a phone with that shit again.
>>
>>58325385
Oh no, I just lost one out of millions customers. I will cry myself to sleep now.

Why not?

If your app were good enough for people to download you'd probably also be a decent enough developer to give the option to use whatever theme the user wants.

Far more likely you've never made a dime off an app and are simply talking out of your ass.

>navmenu background color blends in with app background color indistinguishably

>>58325491
Or you know, majority of normies buying it don't have such a no-taste in design as you. I bet 99% of them don't even know what OLED is.

Burn in and poor battery life unless every app you use is black.

Define poor battery life. I get like 7 or 8 hours SoT and the only app with dark background is Twitter (which I barely even touch). And I play 3d games from time to time too
