Elon Musk, who announced significant changes on Twitter in recent weeks, has accelerated his efforts for the new social media platform. Twitter, which is undergoing a rebranding process under the name X, will only serve users with a dark mode.
Elon Musk: “Twitter will continue its journey with dark mode.”
Twitter’s gradual rebranding as X is progressing. The company revealed its new name and logo to users on the Android application last night. It is expected that the iOS application will undergo a similar renewal process soon.
The new platform, described as “the application of everything” by Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino, garnered mixed reactions from some users. Elon Musk, in a statement on his Twitter account, stated, “This platform will soon have only a dark mode. Dark mode provides a better experience in every aspect.”
This sparked a debate, as some individuals argued that it might be more difficult to read light-colored text on a black background. Many people still want the option of a light-colored theme, even if X defaults to dark mode for its new design identity.
Currently, Twitter offers several background options based on user preferences: light mode, dim mode with a dark blue/gray background, and dark mode called lights out. According to Musk’s statement, dim mode and light mode options will soon be removed from the platform.
