New Desktop app update installed an almost white user interface. There is zero contrast which is not good for the eyes. I see where some people have requested a light interface so incorporate an option to select either light or dark theme like in the Office apps.

This request is on our roadmap, but we don't have timelines to share yet. We'll update this idea when there are more details to share. Thank you!

What were they thinking? Had to turn my brightness down!

RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.

I work with Visual Studio in dark mode. I'm completely baffled as to why the editor is in white? Was there nothing left on the feature request list to work on?

My apologies for the rant. This white/light gray scheme is extremely hard on the eyes! Please bring dark theme back. It's been a while since working with MS Products was painful...yet, here we are...

Please bring back the original colour scheme, or even better, allow users to set their own!

The Light Theme is really hard on eyes and really difficult to work with.

For the love of god. Please make this a priority.

The new UI is way too harsh

A fully understandable tsunami of comments on this request after the June update.

Not a fan of the new light theme
