I don’t know how anyone with a glossy display can work on a dark theme.

I see my whole room unless it is pitch black inside.



I don't know how anybody can stand glossy screens, period. The mirror effect is wildly distracting. All my daily driver machines have matte screens. If I could get a matte screen on my phone I would.


You can easily “stand” glossy screen with white background: you only see reflection on dark background: like check your phone screen.

Also not that there were many alternatives to my 32″ 6k display at the time of purchase.
