Germans opinions on dark mode user interfaces?

Hallo zusammen!

I'm currently developing software and I'm curious about German preferences regarding dark mode user interfaces. Dark mode has gained popularity worldwide, but I'd love to hear specifically from Germans:

Do you prefer dark mode or light mode for applications and websites?

1) if you use dark mode, what are your main reasons? (e.g., eye comfort, battery saving, aesthetics) 2) Are there any specific types of applications where you always/never use dark mode? 3) How important is having a dark mode option when you choose software or apps? Any other thoughts or opinions on dark mode interfaces?

It would be very helpful if you could also mention your age and gender with your response, as this might provide interesting insights into preferences across different demographics.

Your input would be incredibly helpful for my project. Danke im Voraus!

Ps: research shows that dark mode usage is the highest among aged 18-34.

Edit: I did not expect to get so many feedbacks. All of you are freaking awesome! I love this German subreddit, so supportive!
