I bet this kind of thread has been made before, but I haven't seen one.

Vote wk for Light UI

Vote bk for Dark UI

You can also use this thread to discuss both UIs, the pros and cons, and suggestions for ways chess.com could make either UI better, in your opinion.

I like dark, but on certain clubs and profiles, background images can make it hard to read because the dark background is transparent.

I like light mode, because I find that dark mode isn't really dark mode -- it's transparent mode. If there was a true dark mode, where it was just inverted from light mode and was solid colors, then I'd use it. But Dark Mode as it is has no consistency, due to the different background. And any image behind the text just looks messy to me.

I get that

I don't want to get blind so i use the dark UI.

I'm not sure exactly if there is an option for changing this, but in variants when using arrows the arrows are different than when you are in the play tab using arrows, personally I wish I could change the play tab arrows to be like the variant's arrows.
