I remember reading that light mode is better for extended reading, so that's what I lean toward. My personal experience is that reading white text on black background can be a little more straining, but it wouldn't surprize me if others feel differently.
I believe, it mainly has to do with dark-theme screens quickly becoming illegible when there's outside light sources. It just isn't bright enough to overpower the glare from the sun and such.
huh, my eyes tire more quickly when there are light backgrounds.
