It's okay to use white themes

MasterLink86 commented 4 years ago

Where does that leave red themes? Wait, that's too Christmas-y.

white themes will burn your eyes and cause pain to your descendants for thousands of years, better to remove it now before it causes too much trouble.

Oh my god, @tomaszgrabowski! You can't just call them white themes!

mymindishazel commented 4 years ago

I'm offended by the caucasian themes; monokai pro should be the only available one.

ranonn commented 4 years ago

@krazyito65 Then they should keep the actual white theme and rename it to Supreme White and add another one but more grayish to protect the eyes

White themes are inherently white supremacist and racist. It's not okay to use light theme. However, you should also not use dark themes as a white person, because that is cultural appropriation. Do better, Microsoft!
