🌑 Step Into the Dark Side: Confluence Dark Mode 🌑
Did you know that 93% of users find dark mode reduces eye strain? Atlassian's Dark Theme for Confluence now lets you work comfortably in low-light settings. Let's explore why you should consider switching and how it enhances your experience.
What Is Dark Mode? 💻
Dark Mode, or the "Dark Theme" in Confluence, switches the bright backgrounds to a darker scheme—usually grays or blacks. This setting aims to reduce the bright glare from your screen and is especially helpful during long working hours or night shifts. It also has system-wide versions, but here, it’s specific to Confluence’s interface.
