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!

RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.

The interface shouldn't have been turned all white to begin with. Effing stupid as hell
No one asked for this change. The change provides ZERO benefit to the user.

Fire whoever brought this idea up. Seriously.

You might as well have changed the application's font to Comic Sans. That's how stupid this decision was

Yes, please add dark mode as this would be very helpful for eye strain. Thank you.

Dark mode give higher contrast so we don't have to squint

Please, please return the dark mode option. Light interfaces are very uncomfortable for many users including myself. It literally gives me a headache after 10 minutes. Please.

RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.

I agree with this post!! White is so tough on the eyes. Having an option to select the theme is MANDATORY at this stage.
