How many of you keep the default orange-on-black Geekhack theme?
From Day One I thought that it was abominable and shortly thereafter a kind user here told me that I could change it. I have used "Austere" exclusively ever since.
-
I used Austere for years. However, I've had to switch back to default because people keep posting interest checks where they modify their post text to a specific color (ususally a light or white) causing the text to be unreadable in Austere. No biggie on desktop, I can highlight to read it, but I can't do that on my phone :(
So, it's been back to default for me for quite some time now.
-
Default, since day 1.
-
i like default, although i actually never even checked the others, the theme is kinda why i am more on GH than DT
-
I almost exclusively use Tapatalk, in dark mode.

Austere theme makes them similar. Orange on black just hurts my eyes and I hate it. I suppose that I am in the minority.
-
I've used Frenir's 'Geekhack 2.0' userstyle for the longest time. A subtly more minimal theme without changing the classic GH vibe.
-
Other themes?
-
Apparently I use Thoriated. I changed to it on day 1 after the theme-redesign/forum upgrade some years ago and have used it ever since.
Before the forum upgrade, there had been only one theme: which was dark grey and orange, and which I quite liked. The new dark theme was darker and more red, and not as nice for the eyes, which is why I switched.

I used Default up till about 2 years ago when I switched to Austere

Explain further please.

I use Austere.
I don't like how bright it is and it could use some contrast to delineate between posts but I haaaaaaate orange. Not sure how TP got black, I don't see that option.
What it is with geeks and orange?

old amber phosphorous screens?
i do not mind orange, i do not love it either, it just does not bother me, but then my screen brightness is very low and contrast is rather bad, so maybe part of it

I used Austere (light theme) for years, since I joined GH. Changed to dark (default) last year when switched to OLED.
Didn't like the dark mode for months but now I got used to it.
Light mode is a bit too bright to be honest, but I loved it for years.
-
Default is great. One of the few websites that standardises on a dark background!
-
I stick with Default O&B, works fine for me and can't stand the brightness of light themes.
-
Just the default for me.
I think I've got used to how it looks and never really felt I needed to change.
-
I've used Thoriated for years.
-
Default for me. I wish there was a more stylish dark theme, but honestly the default has grown on me. I've never felt the need to change
-
After I found out that it is possible to change the theme, I settled for a refined and subtle color scheme: Oranje.
