@billygriffin Thanks for considering anyway. Current dark theme also saves the day, during night time saves the eyes 😃

@tidy-dev Yes sir I was looking for the darkest theme (like background is complete black). I believe github desktop uses only dark dimmed

=> https://github.com/settings/appearance has three theme options:

  • Default light
  • Default dark
  • Dark dimmed

Example (from the original https://github.com page color setup):

Since its(dark theme) used by the github, I was just hoping github desktop could easily integrage it. Please see it as a feature request in future.
